I think Facebook can sustainably generate revenue, just not anywhere near a rate that grows in accordance with their valuation. As opposed to Groupon, which I think is literally just a fad and almost completely unsustainable, Facebook is merely massively overvalued. It's not that the Emperor has no clothes...more like he's in a thong.

I agree whole-heartedly

I agree. They have an incredible resource of data, but don't really have a platform that leverages it for profit. I'm not looking to spend money when I am on Facebook.

They should create an Amazon competitor, or buy Overstock.com or something similar, then they might have an edge. The service they provide gets worse the more they try to monetize it.
