This article upsets me. Not just because it grosssly oversimplifies everything to make a point, nor because of its complete journalistic negligence (what about companies in competitive markets that have dominated their competitors? why isn't FB vs myspace like netflix vs blockbuster? etc etc. And AOL was merged...how does this related to FB? ugh). But for something deeper...
Maybe I just woke up in an angry mood, but this article is written for the sole purpose of being able to say "I told you so" if indeed somewhere down the line Facebook does tank. It is this "contrarian for publicity's sake" attitude that really creeps under my skin and makes me upset at the world.
