Facebook death imminent

http://technology.timesonline.co.uk/tol/news/tech_and_web/article2086909.ece

Basically some geezer who went to Harvard with the Facebook bloke is claiming he had a bunch of source code stolen. Alarmists everywhere are pretty sure the site will be shut down any day now and encourage you to backup your friends before you forget who they all are. Again. Still, it’s sure to return as a paid-for-20-quid-an-hour subscription site run by the evil new owners. Who also originally come from Mars, so I hear.

Oh please.

    I see today that they have as good as temporarily thrown out of court for now, as the judge has asked for more evidence against….

  1. i heard that this bloke has a similar site but where as facebook has like 31 million people all over the world logging on he has only 70 thousand so hes a little bit pissed . hes going home and he's taking his ball with him

  2. Yes, it's slightly sour grapes, isn't it? The folks over at People Aggregator, Friends Reunited and MySpace are probably equally as shocked to learn of the source of this "Social Networking" thing as well. Unless the code was genuinely stolen, then he's quite right to fight. It worked out so well for SCO.
