The big banks are the ones who made out. We still need a couple weeks to see where this thing goes.

good right about now. Short term investors looking to make a quick buck are distorting Facebook's value. I think it's way too early to come up with any long term predictions.

if you have more than 500 shareholders you're forced to go public.
My reasons FB will NOT fail. It may not be the stock monster ppl think it will, but it wont fail b/c
- There's no competition. MySpace fell off b/c while it allowed ppl more freedom, it was TOO MUCH freedom and ppl overloaded pages with garbage. Facebook, you have to work within the framwork template. People like to be told what to do
- They're too far ahead. I've been on FB since 04. though I dont check it much these days, it's there if i want to. I have pictures on there that are several years old. Some ppl chronicle their kids every moment or their own every moment. They have 4-5 years worth of pictures that they're not gonna just leave and go to some other site.
- Twitter could become more popular if they can figure out how to get rid of al the spam and fake accounts, but it's not even competing directly against FB

Speaking of Twitter, how exactly do they make money besides sponsored Tweets?

you're taking a risk but everyone was hyping that IPO up too much. If you were like a lot of people that thought it would be trading a 50 per share right about now then one yeah I think it the conditions were there. People are not about taking risks like they use to and are quick to sell if they don't see immediate results. And finally, I think facebook was overvalued at 38 per share. Honestly I think its grossly overvalued. So if you think its overvalued and expect the price to fall...
I wondered this too, but I'm sure there's all sorts of ways to make money that us "average" folk know nothing about.
Google and Bing pay twitter to license the tweet firehose so they can display tweets in their real time search.
Also companies pay for promoted tweets which appear in twitter search results.
Companies also pay for promoted trends.
Also when a someone fills out there information if it falls under a demographic it will suggest companies for you to follow and twitter makes around 5 bucks per follower. This is why twitter makes you follow people right from the jump.
