Facebook Revealed: IPO Coming 2009 End?

Started by Sid Yadav · 1 year ago

Kara Swisher of BoomTown had some juicy details to reveal today about Facebook, apparently as blabbingly told to all by founder and CEO Mark Zuckerberg at an employee meeting in Palo Alto Theater.

    Well, they might have to IPO this year:

    Great point -- surely though Zuckerberg must have been aware of that when he made the statement on 60 minutes? That said, giving 500 out of 1000 employees stock options sounds very realistic, and additionally they have their executive stock holders -- I have no clue how they're going to manage through that.

    I'm pretty sure it's 700 not 500. And since all Facebook employees have stock options, if they do hit their projected 1,000 employees then it'll happen by the end of this year.

    Facebook like any major organisations wants to leverage on IPO for further expansion and growth.

    With the current downturn, i don't think IPO is on the agenda.

    I think Mark Zuckerbergand his staff are a bunch of racist white folk, they are very nasty and rude to people of color , yes who post pics of themselves and family so you clearly know the race of people you are being rude too, i am strongly asking all people of color to delete their accounts. i will not stop until the site Facebook is down for good.....

    What experience or evidence do you have. Zuckerbergand is very young so I hope he isn't a racist. That's a strong accusation.

    It seems Face Book still wants to be independent. IPO market hasn't completely revived yet at this moment. Adding to this the recession and global depression in economy this would be tough. May be Microsoft is Face Book's new IPO.

    Though facebook is trying to get help from IPO, in order to get rid of their critial circumstances and it seems to be very helpful but in long run, it may put them in to crisis..
