Not a doubt in my mind.

PS: I often refer to him (when I'm griping on FB about something that doesn't work) as Zuckerschmuck. But I'm trying to break that addiction. :flee:

I meant to post this one this morning also and forgot. Some confusion about what advertisers feel about Facebook.

GM will stop using FB, but at the end of the article, Ford says they will continue.

The NY Times based story in my morning paper today: Facebook Raises $16 Billion in I.P.O. - NYTimes.com
