Difference between Facebook and Google is that Facebook is simply a social network site. Google is a search engine.
Facebook's only way of turning a profit will be through advertisement, and, lets be honest, the people that are likely to look at the advertisements are teenagers who spend all day on facebook. And they won't be buying anything. Anyone with the ability to buy something won't, or at least shouldn't, be lured in by a flashy ad saying how much money you could save/great deals on something. I heard rumours that Facebook is going to charge users, but when I did a search, apparantly it's all a hoax. Doesn't matter, either way. I imagine the company that bought Facebook were playing around with the idea, but the repercussions just weren't worth it. Facebook itself is, to me, absolutely pointless. I won't elaborate on that as it'd take all day. I don't know how many decades it'll take for even one percent of the cost to buy Facebook will be made. Remember, it sold for a hundred BILLION dollars. An exorbitant price, for a useless site. I'm just hoping people get so frustrated that they go back to a different social networking site, and I won't have to hear the constant natter about the damn thing. It's popular, and it'll likely be remembered because of this popularity, but it most certainly wasn't worth it. |
