"Facebook CEO Mark Zuckerberg has beaten Google founders, Larry Page and Sergey Brin, once again. And no, we are not talking about the success of the trio's social networking ventures. Zuckerberg is now richer than the Google duo."

Isn't the valuation of Facebook actually extremely murky vis-a-vis open market pricing? It not being generally purchaseable and highly valued makes me think of PetroChina.
