Unsuccessful ideas can live on for a long time in a large corporation.

Nobody wants to tell the boss his pet project sucks - or to get their buddies laid off. And with Facebook's $100 billion in revenue, nobody's going to notice the cost of a few thousand engineers.

10 years, $50 billion, fewer than 10 million MAU. It's a failure today, right this minute it's a failure.
