Facebook is targeting dates between April 2012 and June 2012 for an initial public offering of its stock.
Facebook is in internal discussions over the timing of its filing with the Securities and Exchange Commission for the IPO, and is considering filing dates as early as this year.
The company is exploring raising $10 billion in an IPO that could value Facebook at more than $100 billion.

We see that groupon isn't doing so hot. Making plays on these kind of companies are hard considering they are tough valuations. I don't know if facebook is capable of putting some change in my pocket but I do know it is a very strong company. My thought is there is nothing backing this company. Not many assets and not many tangibles to bring value. The only thing they got going for them is "a cool idea" (according to the social network) and I don't really want to fund something to help my girlfriend dig up more dirt on me
any thoughts on how it will trade?
and I know some people will get lucky and get it first at a low price when it is a must buy.. but will the general public have the chance to cash out if they act at the right time?

just trying to make some small talk on opinion cause it is interesting
may receive higher valuations since it gathers large volumes of people into one confined website. Ultimately allowing for easier marketing and advertising opportunities for those willing to pay the high price to place the ad.
