The writer, Adam Rifkin, of this first article predicts that Facebook will be, in five years, bigger than Google is today. This is a pretty tough prediction knowing that both of these two websites are the most popular and influent for the World Wide Web sphere. I agree that it is not an equal comparison because one of it is a search engine and the other one is a social network. But, after I read this article, I do believe that it could be possible, even if the idea seems insane. The author is very persuasive with his explanation. His major argument concerns the money, and he divided his description in different parts such as Games, Inbox, Facebook Credits, Photos, and other applications from the Facebook website.
I am a Facebook user. Ok, I admit it, I am a Facebook addict ! This is like a virtual drug, I am constantly connected to this network and if I am not in front of my computer, I still have my Iphone. I need to see what happened, to check what I missed. Just for saying that most of these applications that Adam Rifkin described in this article, I use it. This is why I can confirm it one day this affirmation will be possible. Everything is well thought, only with this website, we mostly have access to rest of Internet. Users don’t look after information anymore, they are coming to us now. Facebook has created events, special pages, a system to share photos, games, and so on. Also, he is talking about the Amazon commerce / Paypal, and says that they had great benefits for the year 2010. If one day Facebook acquires it, the revenue could grow up annually to 12 billion $. This is why I said it is an intelligent social network, because Facebook could gain every battle where Google failed.
