Thank for the update. My only concern is that, i just hope it will not affect the Facebook’s site. I’m a constant user of FB and I notice that sometimes it hanged. Maybe because this is the effect of the new applications created for Facebook.

Facebook has dramatically changed the internet marketing. It is expected Facebook IPO would go one of the largest IPOs in the world. It will then be easy to determine company’s status.

Especially G which is pretty scared about the possibility of FB joining with Bing and taking G first place as search engine all the web is looking at Facebook. And I might be wrong but FB will soon go the way of MySpace as well as G will go the way of Yahoo Things like going out with friends for example i think there are better way to use time than staying on FB all day. Or is it all this hype just created ad hoc to make Mr. Z even more rich with a product like FB which is most of the time simply useless? Something which would have some benefits anyway. Z will become richer with ads and so on but I really doubt that FB is useful for more than 10 percent of businesses.

On the same topic, state Senator Fran Pavley (D–Agoura Hills) said the long-anticipated IPO may bring a one-time infusion of as much as $1 billion to the cash-strapped state, which is facing a deficit of about $9 billion as budget talks open this spring for the next fiscal year.

have an account because it’s a decent way to keep in touch with family and friends from around the country and the world, but I only log in about once a week. I could pretty easily do without it, I think.

I think Facebook IPO could turn out to be one of the largest IPOs in US Corporate history! They have 845million users and made a net profit of $1billion in 2011. I think Mark has taken this decision to make this even better this year. The delay in its launch will not have much effect on this increased profit share. Looking forward to what’s in store for us!

I am frankly surprised that so many are down on the company. Based on a quick read of their S-1, they have 800 million plus members who log on to the site at least once every 30 days. That’s impressive. They simply do social networking better than anyone else. That has to be a pretty easy sell to companies trying to advertise. They’ve just in the last 3 years started tapping into that with advertising revenue and app sales. We’re eagerly awaiting Facebook’s IPO papers, which are expected sometime this week. Everyone wants to know exactly how profitable the social network is, how fast revenues are growing and what the company’s valuation will be.

Facebook has been an integral part for many businesses! It has changed the way we market our services and products. Also, I gives a personal touch as company can personally reply to customer queries! Looking forward for this Fcaebook IPO! Hope it’ll launch. Waiting….

Interesting statistics.. beginning to wonder if I’m the only person who thinks Facebook isn’t actually worth as much as it seems to be!

I think by launching Facebook IPO, Mark has taken a economical and competitive decision. After the launch of Google+, I think launch of Facebook IPO will prove a healthy competition to Google. The delay in its launch will not make any particular difference. Google+ did not receive a huge response like FB received after its launch. But I think this will not be the case with Facebook IPO.

Shiliang who writes about microscope supply February 6, 2012 at 12:05 am

Facebook’s IPO will give them a chance to expand on a major scale. They are planning to raise around a 100 billion dollars through this IPO which may seem imaginary to most of the companies when they launched their IPO, but it sure is true. Facebook has rose to a level never imagined a couple of years earlier but from here on, it only gets better.

Nicholas February 5, 2012 at 11:02 pm

To become a part of Facebook IPO everyone will wait even for a longer time as it is associated with the social networking site’s big daddy Facebook. I think this will help in improving the status of FB in market to a new level which will be difficult for other sites to achieve. Waiting for its launch! Thanks!

Interesting graphs and looking forward to seeing more analysis on this. I can’t help feel that this stock is going to be over-valued though, just like in the days of the .com boom! But then again, I thought the same a few years ago when the apparent value wasn’t anywhere near what it is now…

We can’t deny importance of social media. If few years back Facebook and twitter accounted for 3-5% of all my website traffic then today this number is 20-30% and still constantly growing.

In my opinion Facebook’s IPO will break many Wall Street records because everyone knows this company and and many will try to get at least tiny but still part of the company

The epic battle between Google and facebook continues! Facebook may receive more attention from their delay than they would have had, had they opened on time. It all depends on the spin.

Nice infographics! I do not understand why facebook is so hyped. I think we are giving it more attention than it deserves. Yes, I agree it is a nice company which has revolutionized social networking but hey, there were websites like myspace, hi5, and so on before facebook and how come they did not get this much attention?
