will it or will it not?

Well, I don't know if you already heard about this, apparently there are news circulating that Facebook is going to be shut down on March 15th.

If the social network does shut down then, it would be catastrophic on epic scale! For one, there are over 600 millions user now on Facebook worldwide, plus with millions of revenue income generated from the social network through advertisements and local business, you can imagine just how bad it could affect us.

But lets now all jump into despair yet. Until 15th of March come, this story has to be treated as a hoax. If what Zuckerberg said is true about the social network getting too overwhelming for him, than hire some new guys overseeing the whole thing. It's not like he has to be there 24/7. Another reason has got to do with society that become too obsess with the social network. How the hell shutting down the website helps this people? They will just find some other sites, MySpace or Friendster will be on their top of the list. You want to help this people? Shut down the internet completely, then you will making a change.

Also, with the news of the Facebook shutting down, more and more social networking sites are trying to punch through the market, here in Malaysia there's one site, 1malaysia.com (seriously? that's the best name that you can come up with?), that was recently lunch.

On the positive side, since The Social Network, the movie, won the best film on Golden Globe recently, Zuckerberg might consider on making the website on for a few more years to come.

If the site does end on March 15th, it's not the end of the world. Well, for some people it might, but it's not for the rest of the world. You just have to survive years without social networking. You should be proud, that you got to live an era where Facebook once the dominating force of the internet world.
