How big can one site really get?

[Carson]

I don't think they would ever be dumb enough to sell it. The current board is pretty smart anyway, and they know how to handle their company. Their policies fit them perfectly, and if anyone else took over, it would certainly go downhill.

 

[Poopy Head]

Facebook is one of the biggest sites on the net, it can't get much bigger than that, especially a forum. Or at least, from what I believe.

Lets try and keep on topic 😛

I never said Facebook couldn't fail, it can. I also know they won't sell, this is just the discussion of how large it is.

Sorry, but I don't think anything can compete with Google.

It owns Android, tons of software, many sites, gets the most hits out of any website, the best (IMO) search engine.

And now it even has it's own social network.

Facebook is not just some social network, it is THE social network. If Google was so superior wouldn't Google+ have killed off FB?

Google Plus will take over 😀

Facebook is having its own phone being developed. Google's Gmail app was even recalled because they released it with bugs. google just doesn't know real design either.

I assume that is why Android is the top seller?

Facebook is a big site but it still have plenty of room to grow and there WILL be bigger sites/forums/social networks, some day as well.
Google does a LOT more then just web stuff. They have their own OS, own browser, own computers/cell phones. Google + was destined to fail from the start IMO.
Facebook is like a gain of sand and Google is the beach.

I'm not sure if I'm reading that right but it says the #1 phone is using.. Android Gingerbread With TouchWiz 4.0
It looks like several of the top 10 phones are using Android.
Also that's not a true graph of the "best seller". Just the top 10 phones this review team liked.

Here, how about this.

First of all, most of those phones are android powered. Second of all, Android is a phone software, not a phone.

Even if you are right, that's not the point 😉

Yes, I am aware that it is not the point. But do you really think that any company is capable of surpassing google at the rate google is going?
