The Facebook Magnet
February 6, 2010
Short honk: Facebook keeps on growing. I read “Facebook to Hit 400m Users.” At this time, in my opinion, Google does not have an answer to Facebook. Google should find this situation worrying. Facebook, like Apple, is more of a closed garden than Google’s wide open Web search service. Inside a walled garden, there are some opportunities denied to a company like Google. For me, the most significant comment in the write up was not the 400 million users. I responded to this comment:
Facebook has also sought to emphasize its applications and games offerings more by creating new links to these.
Different game from the one Google is playing and potentially game changing.

Nope. No one paid me to write this. When DC dig outs again, I will report this to the FAA which monitors high flying stuff.
