What do you guys think...will Facebook pull a "MySpace" on Groupon?

    Hey Dexx,

    Mighty interesting I say. Social media sites are constantly evolving. Not sure what to make of it for now. There are many comments on that site that are mixed. Some say Facebook should stay in their own "niche" while others say it is a natural progression for them since they have the "perfect" infrastructure.

    It think it's too early to tell if this will work or not.

    I think Groupon should have took the 5 or 6 billion from Google when they had the chance. I see these deal sites as the new spam, I hate getting the emails, I only look for potential clients.

      Agreed.

      As the old song goes... "Go on... take the money and run...."

      I think that decision will go down in tech biz history as one big swing and a miss.

    Wow, so FB is really interested to go into this business. Groupon now has a mighty competitor.
