Poll: Facebook is a fad

I have been telling people this all the time but it would seem people are blinded by their friends and flash games to realize that once the polish wears off things won't be the same.

Facebook has more 900 million users as it prepares to launch a new IPO this week. But a fair number of people aren't too excited about the popular social network.

Half of the 1,000 people polled by the Associated Press and CNBC called Facebook a passing fad. A majority of those surveyed (51 percent) have a favorable impression of the company, while 23 percent have an unfavorable opinion.

But in light of the upcoming IPO, the survey focused more on Facebook's value as an investment.

Until things go south I'll spend some time making sure the Ninjalane Facebook page is up to date as it would seem 900 million people is a great way to spread the word.
