GeoCities => Friendster => MySpace => Facebook

Wake me up when there's news. I bet all those stupid Microsoft investment stories were planted by Facebook's PR firm.

facebook and its giant hype-ridden PR push will probably backfire and they won't be able to get an investor/buyer at these ridiculous valuations. They'll have to go the IPO way and IPO will not do well (at least not at the valuations they're suggesting).
