    If it would have been a offer in cash... I would think they are stupid, but .... 500 Mil. in facebook stock, come on... buble, bluble ... bang... and the money is gone. Good choice.

    This is basically what I was thinking, too. $500 million is a lot different than $500 million in Facebook stock. There are a lot of online destinations with huge traffic and questionable monetization plans - its hard to believe that they'll all figure out profitability one magic day in the middle of an economic collapse. When someone comes offering cash in that kind of range, I'd say they should go for it.

    What a joke. Twitter is the most useless site on the web. It's only value is peoples conceit.

    If the price is right, they should just sell the business. In fact business are built with the objective of making considerable profits.

    Twitter is Not for Sale! (wink, wink). Appearing on “The View” Twitter co-founder, Biz Stone, tells Barbara Walters, “No. We are not for sale.” That may be true–for today. But every business is for sale. I wrote more about this here: http://faseidl.com/public/item/231681
