Question about investing...?
I just saw that Facebook filed for a $5 billion dollar IPO. However, I want to know: is it really smart to invest in social networks?

I don't really do any investing, but it seems like the very nature of a social network would not make it a viable investment.

Sure, Facebook is popular now, but I bet 5-10 years from now (maybe sooner) it won't be so popular. Why then, would someone tie money up in it? Is the idea to make a quick buck by buying now and selling before it declines in value?

Also, what if it doesn't increase in value? I would think that with something as volatile as a social network, there's a huge risk in investing.
