		<description>[...] Why Facebook is now the number one social network in the world and why this matters. VentureBeat, great blog covering startup news in different sectors. Provides cultural analysis on how Facebook is different from other social nets, why it has a high adoption rate in all countries so far and the value/future value of Facebook users. All of these blog posts are insightful and there is something to be learned from all of them. However, I feel there is a lot of over-thinking going on with regards to the discussion about the actual valuation of these companies, and I believe many of the bloggers sited above would agree. The social networking phenomenon itself is not an idea that will either sink or swim in the next 5-10 years as some people seem to believe. Some of the players in this space will execute on making money off of the massive amounts of traffic they receive and some will not. It is clear and inevitable that, like in any industry, the different players will need to develop competitive advantages (as they already have began to do) and focus on a certain industry that social actions online can integrate with - this comes down to being more than just &#8217;social networks&#8217;.
