When in 2007 Microsoft acquired a piece of Facebook was forced to pay well $ 240 million for a share of 1, 6% , on balance, the social networking website would be worth something like $ 15 billion or $ 35.90 per share. Some information strategically hidden in the light and now emerged, however, have brought attention to the estimated value today of the social network of Zuckerberg.
A new figure emerges fact, at the hands of Associated Press, which has managed to recover some of the details of which occurred over a transcript of a hearing closed to the public and held at the dispute between Facebook and ConnectU : the value of the shares related to Facebook, estimated by the same company, would be equal to $ 8.88 per share, giving the company a market value of approximately $ 3.7 billion . Then suddenly the value of the number one social networking portal considerably while the world is resized to Microsoft, the partnership appears to be cost much more than they should despite the light of the growing numbers could represent an operation, however, the prospect of success.
Facebook continues to grow unabated in our country and exponentially: if in August 2008 had only 622,000 members, the data updated on February 9 reported a value of 7.5 million people , or 34% of the population connected to the Internet. Overall, men accounted for 50% of students and women 45%, while 5% did not state their gender. Curiously, le donne con una età inferiore ai 24 anni risultano essere in maggioranza rispetto agli uomini, rapporto che si inverte con sempre maggior dislivello man mano che si sale con l'età.
Secondo Brett Brewer , co-fondatore di InterMix Media (la compagnia che ha sviluppato MySpace), Facebook avrebbe già vinto nella gara alla supremazia tra i diversi siti di social networking , superando di gran lunga ciò che sino a non molto tempo fa era considerato il portale principe, ovvero MySpace: «Facebook è incentrato sul contattare le persone che già si conoscono. [...] Chiaramente il mondo ha abbracciato con calore MySpace, ma poiché le persone tipo hanno adopted the social network, the first thing they want to do is connect with people they already know. [...] Facebook has done a great job focusing on this aspect. " Although Facebook has won the battle, Brewer looming on the horizon a potential strong competitor in the near future able to reverse the tables, which is a hypothetical service able to exploit the mobile platform more fully than is currently the case.
