I think so... It's been on the news lately a lot for obvious reasons, and here's some interesting data...
- Anticipated P/E ratio of 100! It will take Facebook 100 years to be able to buy its stock, not that it would ever care to
- Yahoo was valued at $100 billion too
- GM says Facebook ads don't pay off (today's WSJ) and plans to pull them off
- Start-ups are selling Likes (today's NPR news), aka Fake Likes from Fake People so that companies can garner some interest in their products; how many of the 900 millions users are really real? How many people are really swayed by Likes?
- Facebook is a waste of time for adults, spend very little time looking at family stuff, mostly; no time or interest for ads
- Facebook appeals to the young population, ads should sell well there, but does the young population care that much?
- Still just ad-revenue driven. Where's the growth? Games and other revenue sources discussed here in the past are just a drop in the bucket
