You may not be smarter than Bill Gates, but you can still beat him at his own game! According to his own calculations - paying two hundred and forty million dollars for a mere 1.6 percent stake in Facebook - Microsoft and Mr. Gates has essentially valued the world's hottest social networking site at an eye-popping fifteen billion dollars.
Why would the world's biggest computer company put so much into a website where users hang out and "poke" each other just for fun? Because they, along with other massive internet operations like Yahoo! and Google, see Facebook as the face of Web 3.0 (beyond Web 2.0) and the future of internet marketing.
To begin with, Facebook represents a huge shift in online thinking and technology to the big corporations - the face of Web 2.0 / Web 3.0 and the semantic web movement - and they're desperate not to be left behind.
Facebook is adding users at an incredible rate of over two hundred thousand a day to its already large base of fifty million. The website is also a prime example of semantic web development, a function of what's being called Web 3.0, where the operating system within the website becomes more important than the operating system (such as Windows) that's used on your computer itself.
The reason for the sudden explosive growth has to do with the Facebook environment and the crucial decision made in May of 2007 by the company management to allow outside vendors to develop new Facebook tools and applications for the site. Suddenly, all sorts of fun free games, toys and interface devices were available to residents of this online community in what came to resemble a standalone operating system that had nothing to with the user's own computer OS.
And Facebook is determined to keep expanding by continuing to "internationalize" the site and bring other countries around the world into the online community. This intense combination of incredible growth and evolving technology has internet marketers hungry for a piece of this fresh, new and massive database.
So Microsoft's massive buy-in is no surprise. The mega-corporations are always looking for marketing's "next big thing," and the computer giant has just given Facebook their real stamp of approval - a huge wad of cash.
But again, what about those of us who lack Microsoft's buying power? Believe it or not, you don't need Bill Gates' deep pockets to "own" your own little slice of Facebook, or be an active part of the site's marketing community. Those new and desirable Facebook users are there for you too, and you can access them on your budget.
Get in on the Facebook opportunity simply by purchasing Facebook marketing software, such as the Stealth Friend Bomber, Facebook Edition. Market with automated ease with this Facebook Friend Adder's featured Mass Friend Requests, Mass Friend Messages and Mass Friend "Pokes." It's a Facebook bot / Facebook Friend Adder that accesses the Facebook database constantly while the online marketer attends to other aspects of his business. If you think it's ridiculous that you can get for nothing what Microsoft got for two hundred and forty million, think again!
