DONNIE'S THOUGHTS ON FACEBOOK

"I've been saying for a long time that Facebook is a passing fancy, and most say I'm wrong, that Facebook is a powerful force, here to stay, young founder Zuckerberg some kind of genius. Well, the opinion of an old dude like myself is no threat to Facebook. But now I see an item that reports 51% of young people consider Facebook a fad--and that is a threat to the site. The fact that there was no stampede last week to buy shares is another signal. A college kid had a new idea how to pick up girls, and the thing naturally exploded. But once old farts like us, and then corporations moved in to dominate the site, the kids started looking around for something new to catch their wistful fancies--some new way to pick up girls. They will find it, and Facebook, like MySpace, will dwindle."

WHO IS HE CALLING AN "OLD FART"?
