    If that's true, then how come Google+ couldn't take Facebook down?

    K Mart was founded in 1962 and decided to avoid "the malls" when choosing their locations. They felt it would be a fad that would soon be a thing of the past due to higher costs etc. Facebook is the new World Mall. Google is the best search engine but i don't hang out there and neither do Facebook users. They may stop for gas once in a while.

    I would entirely agree with his comment about Facebook's ad placement. I can't recall.... EVER..... clicking on a Facebook ad. They have sat in the same spot pretty much its entire lifespan, and my mind has not only built a mental roadblock for them to be seen, but I simply don't care what they're about when I might see one. The passive ad targeting is going to bring Facebook down, they need to be much more aggressive (which they have started to by putting them in the News Feed).

    It is a Social network of the PAST as they have added many ads to it Like Google.
