From an advertiser's standpoint though (my biz btw) I just don't see the revenue potential - at least not at the level to justify the hype/speculation currently raging.  People love to compare Facebook right now to where Google was 4-5 years ago.  But Google already had a strong, proven revenue system in place that would scale wonderfully with any future growth.  Facebook doesn't have anything REMOTELY close to that right now.  And all current and emerging ad models just won't scale to match the current speculative valuation.

Partly to act as a counterbalance to Google in a growing online area (I'd rather see MS get it for the same reason) and partly because I think Yahoo has always been the epitome of a portal - something Facebook could easily morph into.

A lot of people complain that Yahoo doesn't do as good a job as Google of folding their acquisitions like Flickr and <a href=\"http://Upcoming.org\" rel=\"nofollow\">Upcoming.org</a> under the Yahoo brand.  But most of Google's most popular re-branded acquisitions have been utilities, not social networks.  It's MUCH easier to slap the Google name on Keyhole (Google Earth) or Writely/XL2Web (Google Docs) than it is to bring a popular, social network into the fold.

Sell to the highest bidder while the Web 2.0 bubble is at its speculative peak and laugh my way to the bank.<br><br>From a user\'s standpoint, I see the potential and use the service daily myself.  From an advertiser\'s standpoint though (my biz btw) I just don\'t see the revenue potential - at least not at the level to justify the hype/speculation currently raging.  People love to compare Facebook right now to where Google was 4-5 years ago.  But Google already had a strong, proven revenue system in place that would scale wonderfully with any future growth.  Facebook doesn\'t have anything REMOTELY close to that right now.  And all current and emerging ad models just won\'t scale to match the current speculative valuation.  A Google or Microsoft can afford to eat the loss to gain marketshare.  But I think going it alone with an IPO will lead to a quick bubble that will quickly burst once actual revenues are realized.<br><br>I\'m with you on one thing, of all the major players capable of buying Facebook I\'d like to see it be Yahoo.  Partly to act as a counterbalance to Google in a growing online area (I\'d rather see MS get it for the same reason) and partly because I think Yahoo has always been the epitome of a portal - something Facebook could easily morph into.   I also like the way Yahoo has not meddled too much with other hot acquisitions.  A lot of people complain that Yahoo doesn\'t do as good a job as Google of folding their acquisitions like Flickr and <a href="http://Upcoming.org" rel="nofollow">Upcoming.org</a> under the Yahoo brand.  But most of Google\'s most popular re-branded acquisitions have been utilities, not social networks.  It\'s MUCH easier to slap the Google name on Keyhole (Google Earth) or Writely/XL2Web (Google Docs) than it is to bring a popular, social network into the fold.  Notice they still haven\'t aggressively tried to fold their largest social site YouTube too much under the Google brand?  Sometimes it\'s better to leave a good thing alone and only slowly bring along closer ties.</div>\

I would like to see Microsoft buy Facebook Having that network would really boost thier AD sales and help promote Live Services. It would also be great intergrated with XBOX Live and Zune. It would nice to log onto my facebook account and see what friends are on XBOX live playing Gears of War. What if they came up with an app that by squirting someone a song on you zune they would also get an invite to be your friend? What if they intergrated it with Windows Mobile as a friend so you could send a mass SMS message with an invite to be your friend? With a 2 billion pricetag I think facebook would represnet a good value to Microsoft. The intergration with Live Space and a Silverlight based video system would rock!</div>\

They\'ve just gone about it in a much more clever way, and that\'s what Microsoft is interested in.<br><br>The social networking stuff, along with the long-time reliance on belonging to particular networks based on an email address, is the key to giving people the incentive to honestly represent themselves.  And whereas MS tried to cajole/bribe/strong-arm companies into signing up for passport, facebook has companies and developers falling all over themselves to create apps whose primary identity requirement is a facebook login id.  I think Dave Winer pointed this out on his blog the other day-- this is the real opportunity for facebook, and the value is enormous.<br><br>That being said, I don\'t want FB to sell out to MS.  I\'m sure they would love to have access to all of that cash, but I hope they understand that what they\'re trying to a very delicate thing, and MS hasn\'t really shown any evidence that they get it-- honestly, neither has Yahoo or Google.  I think they should keep it private for as long as they can, and keep control after they go public.</div>\

I think that one of its biggest strengths is how it facilitates the creation of cross organizational communities in a relatively (for the web) secure and controlled environment. The addition of apps is great and needed but I think it is this community aspect that will help to really give it legs as it facilitates/fosters discourse and networking in a world where we are all scrambling to keep up with the technical churn, and where who you know is becoming as important, or more so, than what you know. Access, and interaction with many minds provides synergy beyond the individual and I think Facebook has really nailed tat aspect. Some added functionality is needed and some kinks to iron out but I think they are best positioned to provide this service that will grow in importance over the next several years technology developments continue to evolve the workplace at an ever quickining pace. If an organization was to purchase it I would hope they would continue to build on these aspects and not morph it in to something else with short sighted vision.</div>\

This however may not happen anytime soon but after all the hype has died down. Monetization of social networks is still a very nascent science and there in will lie Facebook\'s challenge.</div>\

You have echoed EXACTLY the worry I have had since I read about the 6BN or however many BN phantom offer to buy Facebook.  Microsoft is not able to even manage their own products and technologies in a forward-thinking, value-adding - - CUSTOMER SERVING - - way!  How on earth would they be able to manage an acquisition this hot and still keep it hot and let it grow as it should?  My only concern with your #1 pick is that you say YAHOO (OK, IPO, first;  YAHOO, second).  My hunch has been for some time is that Microsoft is trying to scoop up Yahoo.  You can see small signs of it..lnot only in small press tidbits, but especially in how they are re-making Windows Live Messenger to look EXACTLY like Yahoo Messenger (OK, it\'s still SLOW and too cluttery, but the similarities are too telling).  So, where would we be if Yahoo bought Facebook and then Microsoft bought Yahoo?  Ooooh, I don\'t even want to contemplate it!  Brings me back to my original idea to plead with Mr. Zuckerberg - - please!  Don\'t sell your soul to the devil!  Sorry for the verbose comment...Keep up the good stuff, Robert! Cheers!</div>\
