In an aside to my last post let’s make some wild Facebook predictions. In a way Mark has let us know his game plan. Let’s look at what facebook would need to do to keep up Zuckerberg’s Second law:
- Twitter-like micro blogging
- Inter-site data sharing (most likely through facebook apps)
- A more effective way to absorb all the new data
Looking at Mark’s past, knowing his ambitious nature, I wouldn’t put it past him if he’s thinking of making Facebook into an operating system. I think the industry is coming to the point where niche operating systems could be successful. Ladies and gentlemen, an introduction to the first social-based operating system.
fPhone? …maybe I should stay out of marketing.
