With much fanfare followed by a tremendous thud, Facebook became a publicly traded company earlier this year. Opening at around $38 a share, it has seen lows as low at $17.50 and closed on the day of this writing right around $20. It may or may not ever see $38 again.

Anyone who is on Facebook knows how insidious their advertising is. My home page holds on average, 8 advertisements in the right hand column.

Google was late to the party as they had some fits and starts with the social world before settling into Plus. But Google may never really challenge Facebook. It’s your writers opinion that the LinkedIn network may be closer to where G+ is headed. If it does, it is going there on steroids.
