If you're refering to my replies to Phil Adcroft...they are in jest. He makes jokes to me regarding political matters. In any case, I am supportive of that petition and Phil's points.

surely the biggest idiot on facebook are those buying the new shares?

Each member is valued at about £125.

Doesn't sound too extreme? Well, try it this way then....

eFestivals must be worth £100M.

I understand it more than well enough to realise that there's no way on earth that efests is worth £100M.

Which gets to prove that Facebook is not worth £100Bn - which those who buy shares will find out soon enough when they lose their shirts.

Depends on how long you want to hold the shares for...  How long you think facebook will be around for etc...

There is loads of factors and the valuation of Facebook has nothing at all to do with the valuation of Efestivals.  You mickey mouse economics are letting you down

Facebook and efests have just about the same economic model. Funnily enough, the stats get to prove that efests is the more successful in how that works at the income end of things (not with each sites income, in the value that advertisers get from ads placed on each site).

It's mickey mouse economics that has a passing fad called Facebook valued at that stupid price. But those who have put that price on it know that there's suckers like you who'll believe them on that price so they don't care, as has been proven as their operating method time and again. It's just another opportunity for them to steal money from the stupid (eg: the poor who think life is about getting rich and not living).

It's worth whatever people are  willing to pay for it.  Just because it won't necessarily be worth £100Bn by this time next year, doesn't mean it's not worth that now.  I am tempted to buy some shares on the day they float, and then sell them at the end of the day.  No idea how to go about doing it though.

Are you saying you sell private information about us to advertisers?

Not sure if you could buy and sell that quickly...

Buying shares though is easy...  http://www.selftrade.co.uk  is a good starting point.

nope, I'm saying that both of our revenue streams are predominantly from advertising.

That's probably why facebook's worth a lot more per user then. At least you know what to do if things ever get too tight

[Barry Fish]

I really like Facebook...

I find SPAM really annoying... Target advertising is actually a pretty useful thing though.

Contrary to some of the scaremongering and moaning about them knowing everything about you.  I think its useful if they know I am a middle aged man, who likes F1, Football and South African food and they can target advertising which is of interested to me rather than another advert of Viagra

I also don't think for a second anyone could get money out of my bank account knowing this stuff.  Mainly because when I phone up I can't get money out of my account due to the security checks

but the fact is it shouldn't be. The advertising at Facebook is far less effective than it is at eFestivals.

Which is why I know that Facebook is hugely over-valued.

But google ads do target advertising. And do it a lot better. And judge the adverts directly rather than sell your information on to others to do it.
