No, Facebook is NOT Shutting Down.

You probably heard about it already, whether from the Weekly World News site, frantic tweets and statuses from friends, or some other personal blog.



Just today I received news that Facebook will cease all operations on March on the grounds that Mark Zuckerberg (or however the hell you spell it) is getting too stressed from managing it.

First of all, the news is reported in Weekly World News. That supposed 'news' site has been known to post faux news - or fake news, as you'd like to put it - in their site. It's not credible, and cannot be trusted. If you actually believe in the site and its reports, then you're an idiot.


Secondly, with its gaining $500 million from Goldman Sachs and some Russian inventor in a deal, putting the company's worth to $50 billion, and an increasing number of members day to day (currently it's just less than 500 million), who WANTS to shut Facebook down? With them making great profits out of it while allowing many users to keep in touch and such, you can't expect Facebook to close down any time soon. It's profitable for Mark and them, profitable for us.


So CALM THE FUCK DOWN. Your favorite social network isn't going to kick the bucket just yet, and that's how it'll always be. Don't get your knickers in a twist. As long as they're making big bucks, they won't exit the market. It's simple business. If you're on the top of the competition, you're more likely to be able to last longer. Remember what happened to Friendster after the birth of Facebook?


So don't fret so much about the matter. Rest assured that it's not true, it's only a hoax, and keep living your life enjoying what Facebook has to offer.


Peace, brothers and sisters!
