Will Facebook be Microsoft’s silver medal?

Posted by Don Day on May 7, 2008

With Microsoft out of the hunt for the Yahoo! prize — will Facebook be its consolation prize? The Wall Street Journal reports today that Microsoft put out feelers to the hot social networking site to see if acquisition talks made sense. Neither MSFT or FB officials are talking. The software giant already has a $240 million take in Facebook – which tags the overall value at about $15 billion. (Here’s a Reuters write-up of the WSJ piece.)

I can just see it now: Soft Face. No?

    Hey – great site, just looking around some websites, seems a pretty nice platform you are using. I’m presently using Drupal for a few of my sites but looking to modify one of them over to a platform similar to yours as a trial run. Anything in particular you would advise about it? Respectfully, Christel.

    Most people, when they criticize, whether they like it or hate it, they’re talking about product. That’s not art, that’s the result of art. Art, to whatever degree we can get a handle on (I’m not sure that we really can) is a process. It begins in the heart and the mind with the eyes and hands.

    As such MLM Advertising has had a stain on its fingers which it is trying its best to remove. That’s why most MLM Marketing promotions companies don’t want individuals who will deal with the MLM advertising opportunity as a get rich fast scheme.
