This truly seems like the dumbest article Mother Jones has ever run.

"We apologize in advance for this relatively NSFW video." Somehow, I doubt the sincerity of that apology, since you then chose to post the video.

This doesn't really affect the substance of your post, but Disney owns ABC (not CBS, as you state above). CBS is a Viacom property.

Re: On the Relative Significance of Facebook’s Purchase of FriendFeed, Or, 7,038,603 vs. 918,088

Daniel, thanks (as always) for a thorough and insightful post. One compelling justification I heard for the FriendFeed acquisition was, simply, staff: FriendFeed has some powerfully talented staff, including the people who built Gmail and Google Maps. Does that warrant a $50 million buyout? Who knows... But FB has money to burn and lots of ambition, so obviously will benefit from adding Paul Buchheit, James Norris, Bret Taylor to their payroll.
