I saw a quick analysis on the Silicon Alley Business Insider this morning. A man by the name of Ross Sandler believes that Facebook will surpass Google in size within the next 2-3 years.
Off the top of my head, I doubt that will happen for a few reasons. The first is not just Google as a search engine, but their AdSense program makes "cents". Google seems to be a mainstay of the ever-changing landscape of web 2.0. They have an ability to metamorphosis and stay ahead of the pack in bringing new tools and technologies to its many users. Not to mention they continue purchasing other on-line entities, so their offerings blossom, while others wilt and are quickly forgotten.
Google has a revenue stream; FaceBook has yet to show they can bring in the bucks!
The fickle crowd of internet users will find another social media site in time (probably within the next 2-3 years, if not sooner), which will pull many users away from FaceBook and onto the next "BIG" thing!
The internet social media scene is a high for many and once they have gotten used to a certain level of social media intoxication from one site, it is onto the next high with whatever is the new groove!
