Facebook is too big to buy, what a terrible situation for Zuckerburg...NOT

An article on CNN stated that Facebook is now too big to buy. It is too expensive that companies do not even offer anymore said COO Sheryl Sandberg. It was also discussed when Facebook will go public. The company is expected to file for an IPO or to start making financial disclosures in 2012.

What was also discussed in the article is that Facebook is not widely available in China due to censorship.

"If your mission is to connect the entire world ...you can't connect the entire world and not China," Sandberg said.

The article covered a lot of topics with Facebook: its future, women in the tech industry and its role in social media.

I thought it was really interesting!

Too big to buy..WOW! I have to say, I am not surprised. I recently had to create a survey for my research methods class. I surveyed 100 people. One of the questions I asked was 'what is your favorite social media?' 92% said Facebook!!!
