Mean Street host Evan Newmark calls on WSJ's Rolfe Winkler and Julie Steinberg to project the role of social media going forward and to answer the simple question: is social media simply a fad? Photo: Getty Images.
Social media is no ... By: BurritoBazooka. on 26 May 12, 19:43:26 Social media is no fad. Facebook will just die.
Remember, social media is not just social networks, centralized as? they are. The term social media is so ambiguous that it can basically change overnight. It used to be all the blogs which people wrote about their own lives, with comment threads where others can communicate with them. It might as well change into that again if someone invents a better system that everyone flocks to.
Social Media is not ... By: SaM5246iPhone. on 26 May 12, 13:16:45 Social Media is not a fad, Facebook is though,? people will still want to communicate but through other things...

What does Facebook ... By: rm02px. on 26 May 12, 04:17:15 What does Facebook produce? Absolutely nothing! Where does Facebook generate it's income from? Advertising. Facebook's IPO started off at $38 and by midweek dropped to about $18. The real worth of Facebook is $0, I say this because it does not produce anything of value, unless looking at what people did on the weekend and? their pictures is considered to be "value." People really need to wake up and invest in things that are actually physical (gold?) oppose? to the virtual.
Elon Musk's SpaceX ... By: merakhagen. on 26 May 12, 03:45:42 Elon Musk's SpaceX will contribute more value to humanity than Facebook ever will. We use FB because we are forced to. Similar? to, I am forced to get driver license and own a car in United States, even though it does not make sense for me to own a car. Car is expensive to operate and incredibly inefficient.
Most of the content ... By: merakhagen. on 26 May 12, 03:39:52 Most of the content created on? Facebook are BS. Because most of these content are not under the microscope of "market competition", so garbage don't get filtered. People post rubbish whenever they feel like it. I can post that I won a lotto, became debt free and just married a beautiful woman; but in fact, I could be lying and you cannot confirm it.
Their obsession ... By: Patrock96. on 26 May 12, 03:16:53 Their obsession with racial group identity is inherently racist.The true antidote to racism is liberty. Liberty means? having a limited, constitutional government devoted to the protection of individual rights rather than group claims. Liberty means free-market capitalism, which rewards individual achievement and competence, not skin color, gender, or ethnicity.
lol i was trolling ... By: Patrock96. on 26 May 12, 03:16:43 lol i was trolling here help spread this message Racism is simply an ugly form of collectivism, the mindset that views humans strictly as members of groups rather than individuals. Racists believe that all individuals who share superficial physical characteristics are alike: as collectivists, racists think only in terms of groups. By encouraging Americans to adopt a group mentality, the advocates of so-called "diversity" actually? perpetuate racism.

By: DanTheShotokanKid. on 26 May 12, 01:38:14 well when ppl say "i'll just hit you up on facebook" that creates a need? to socialize. it's like when someone says "what is your number?" So that is what's up. Basically being social has evolved. i'm 17 turning 18 in august and i'm not a teen who uses twitter, facebook or anything like that. I do not like this in my generation

Why people are so ... By: msoviet409. on 26 May 12, 21:33:44 Why people are so infatuated with? charisma? It's only superficial. There were so many charismatic people in history who made it to the top but still did not make the grade. I would prefer someone who's capable of turning bad things into something positive for the sake of those who vote for him.

By: shovelniron. on 26 May 12, 06:52:42 it's pretty close to the end for Wall Street... it's like a greedy casino....once it gets a bad rap nobody goes back to play... and it's 2012, there are just too many other safer ways for folks to make money off investments that don't require Wall Street...it's a global market today Wall Street? can only get smaller from here.....kinda like peak oil except nobody really needs Wall Street

By: illdawg1234. on 26 May 12, 09:55:23 that sea robin is one disgusting bastard, thats all we catch out here in brooklyn, whenever we catch? a sea robin we try to step on it, (doesnt always work cause its real slippery) it makes a disgusting squealing noise like pulling the tail of a pig. we try to stomp them out to reduce the population of that son of a fish! only? asians keep it and sell it to their restaurants :/

Astronauts have captured SpaceX's Dragon capsule ahead of an historic docking expected Friday, making it the first commercial vessel to visit the international space station. Andy Pasztor reports on Lunch Break. Photo: AP.
Each launch of a ... By: DubStepRevolution3. on 26 May 12, 04:17:35 Each launch of a Falcon 9 rocket + Dragon Cargo capsule costs $135 million.
In three years (not five) when seven astronauts are on board, we're looking at $20 million per seat if pricing remains similar to a cargo launch! Remember, the Dragon was designed from the outset to carry humans. We're currently paying Russia $60 million per seat on their? Soyuz capsule. At $1 BILLION per launch of the Shuttle, each seat cost $143 million. Space X is drastically reducing the cost of space flight! Bravo!
