    Baked bean cans for a landline.

    Rectangular sardine cans for mobile.

    Judging by my two kids, it's here to stay for a while longer. They no longer text their friends, if they want to chat, they do so on facebook, because that's where all their other friends go to chat as well.

    Considering one's 12, and has about 4-8 more years of talking guff to his mates ahead of him, and texts require credit, and Faceburp is free, I'd say your moneys safeish.

    Well, as safeish as a share you probably paid 30+ for and will settle long term at somwhere around 8-10 can be. Can I interest you in a VW Phaeton?:)

    Honestly, I really hope Facebook doesn't shut down. Otherwise I'll just have to remember people's birthdays.

    I hope it doesnt go anywhere. I have friends in America, Spain, England, Denmark, China and an ever growing number in Australia. It would be a pain to try and keep up with them without Facebook.

    I've come too close to quite a few "Friends You Might know" aka "tossers" whom I did know back in the day. I'm not sure if my renewed awareness of them is a good or bad thing.

    But as long as it doesn't negatively effect share price, all FB tossers are Friends o'mine, yes Lordee Lawd!

    How did you ever manage without FB.:rolleyes:

    You'd swear is was the only thing of its kind. I used MSN for years before FB was even a brain fart and it still does all FB does for me. Now Gmail chat is just as good without all that FB sh1te.

    Can't have a night out without a camera shoved in your face every 5 mins thanks to FB. Hope it dies, and digital cameras in pubs and clubs.

    13 months? It could be. Some kids might lie about their age to be able to go fight the cyber-chat war. Shocking stuff, I know.

    What may happen is that its share price may finally correct itself to its true value. All that will mean is that those like the OP who have bought FB shares will lose much of their stake. Not cool but it is inevitable.
