<p>Facebook is often spoken about as being on a par/ just beneath MS, apple, google and amazon. I just don’t buy that despite the stock price and market cap. Many of my friends have started to move away from the service and I can’t see younger people jumping on it in the same way. Could Facebook be the first major tech company to burst in a dramatic way?</p>
