Microsoft Buys Facebook, Sort Of
Wed, 24 October 2007 at 6:32 pm
Microsoft just beat out Google and will buy 1.6% of Facebook for a whopping $240 million.
That values the social networking site at $15 billion. Yes, billion! This makes 23-year-old Facebook founder Mark Zuckerberg one very rich man.
Microsoft will soon be the exclusive advertising platform for Facebook.
Google, you lose.

Slow news day, Jared? LOL
boring zzzz
i’d prefer google winning.
FaceSoft..haha, that would be a funny name
i prefer google 2
i prefer vanessa hudgens. oh yea comment the zanesa dinner, we want 2000 comments help out lend a hand!
Mark Zuckerberg probably now sealed his fate as a very lonely old man.
Ha ha. The golddiggers should keep him sweet until then
whoa.. i wonder what it’s like to be a billionare when you’re only 23.
Bloody hell! Microsoft?! Why them? They’ll probably put viruses & bugs into it so the whole thing breaks down like every other Microsfoft product ever made.
I wish one day someone would create a YouTube or Facebook, be mega successful & popular & then NOT sell it to the highest bidder, that would rule…however, it’s never going to happen…
This worries me a little.
Gem, Microsoft doesn’t make viruses, the hackers do because more people use windows than mac.
and i don’t think facebook is even that popular. makes me wonder how much myspace is worth.
Facebook is so last year!
THANK YOU AMY! thats because microsoft > mac. im still mad at justin long. psh.
but i’d still rather google win. oh well, facebook is BORING.
Good for Microsoft then? I have a facebook account but I rarely use it. I’ll check it once in a blue moon lol.
i didnt rly get it.,

but hey.
google, u loose.
hahahahahha. FaceSoft.
hahaha.

I’m thinking the same thought! That must have been his DESTINY! ANYBODY ELSE COULD HAVE EASILY DONE THAT!
facebook is will be the next frienster in about a year…
myspace is here to stay.
noo, i think facebook is here to stay
they’re tryna make it appeal to teens more. that is why they put all that silly applications on there. & that is why EVERYONE can be on there now. at one point you had to be a college student to have facebook. myspace is here to stay. it has too many different uses. promoting music, movies, tv shows & all of that. & you dont have use ya real name.
Aw damn. Another Microsuck product I have to stop using.
Stupid Microsoft is going to have a monolopy on EVERYTHING!
