Wow.. to the top level commenters who rationalize the merits of the Facebook IPO as successful in extracting the maximum amount of money for investors and employees.. this is the type of logic that warrants the criticisms thrown at Silicon Valley.

Not withstanding the fact that the redistribution of wealth was based on 'hype' and just a douchy move, does no one seem to understand that the IPO market will inexorably implode yet again through such self-serving actions, thereby closing future IPO opportunities for companies with real revenues and growth?
