So Zuckerberg already owes the Russian mob $4-6 billion that he “lost” for them

The biggest line item in the Facebook 2010 budget is going to be for his security team.

Facebook is as much worth as the fool who pays for it.
Is there anyone buying?
If then there is no price, thus no valuation.

Maybe time to move on to the next platform. Not Twitter as that has been on Oprah (= not cool anymore).

It does seem really odd, unless they plan to acquire some of those app companies, or MSN wants to acquire those app companies.

What is the valuation of TechCrunch – Any guesses?

In the LinkedIn trainings I have been doing for over 3 1/2 years, I keep making predictions about the future of LinkedIn re: ownership.

Seems to make logical sense that an IBM, Microsoft or even a D&B/Hoovers would throw a couple billion around and buy the “relationships” with millions of extremely high value customers and prospects.

It might be a pre-eminent strike to be sure that someone else doesn’t snatch them up (read something that might start with a “G”).

Similar ideas for Facebook and Twitter, but to a MUCH lesser degree. LinkedIn is the gem for B2B vendors. Maybe that will kick LinkedIn in the butt so they can pay START paying attention to the needs of their users and customers. They sure aren’t now.

I disagree. A whole heap of Facebook users have a stack of posts, photos and more which have taken time and effort to build and they would be lost without. This will ensure they don’t become victims to a fickle audience in quite the same way that MySpace did.

LinkedIn is a personal resume and a bunch of e-mail addresses for most people. Either can be downloaded and used elsewhere in minutes. As will possibly happen if people start using Google Profiles properly, which have the potential to contain all you need to locate and communicate with your business contacts without ever visiting LinkedIn.

Back on topic, any attempt to value a company without full transparency of accounts is folly. Apart from which, shares in still private companies are likely to have limitations placed on them to prevent blocks being traded without the consent of other shareholders.
