Is it just me or does this strike anyone else as emitting the odor of desperation? http://money.msn.com/business-news/article.aspx?feed=AP&date=20130111&id=15986046
not desperate, IMHO what does it cost to try something it out? [being long] I'm happy to see them trying things in the end, FB could go the way of Myspace, I can't see the future, but it doesn't seem like it will happen anytime soon marc
Facebook tests $100 charge to message Zuckerberg --------------------------- Sounds like something Trump would do. At any rate what the heck would anyone say to Zucker? "Yo, where'd ya get the hoodie?"
Of course it costs nothing. Just that it seems awfully penny ante. Can you imagine, say, Apple offering you the chance to send an email to Steve Jobs (when he was alive, of course) for $100? I just don't think this is the trial balloon of which juggernauts are made and prompts me to ask, anew... What is Facebook's second act?
yes, my 1st impression is strange/weird also, and it sounds like something that could backfire, image wise it's certainly not a money maker for Facebook... it must be something else then... who knows what they're thinking... marc
