    Great question  @alexandrabriggs.  I think it will cause Facebook to focus more on advertising and profitability.  They have already announced the sponsored stories will start appearing in the News Feed early this year.  I think they will also focus on their privacy structure.  Any other thoughts?

    @andrea-vahl @alexandrabriggs i think facebook will more focus on cleaning garbage from the house. They have already started to act aggressively against spammers and now they are planning to take an aggressive look at those who are misusing personal profile for business; by using profile as a page. Facebook wants to make cleaner impression in market ahead of its initial offering. Before they foray into market they’ll be hard trying to wash out their over marketing impression caused by spam marketing activities. What do’ya say?

    @andrea-vahl @moinshaikh I agree with both of you. I think they may start to really assess the different “apps” that are integrated as well. At the least I think they will make the app integration or sign up more stringent so individuals know exactly what part of their information is going to the app and emphasize that the app is NOT part of Facebook.
