And will the kids continue to use that cool new wideget for more than 15 minutes. It sounded like the Rockyou founders had given some thought to apps beyond walls. One of them talked about making apps that would be useful as the facebook crowd grew older. I suspect they were not tellng you everything.

Especially his comment about Facebook (& others) eventually creating a virtual payment system. I'm sure this will unlock micropayments for different things.

You just mocked everyone there for 3 min. You came off really immature, much more than the hardworking 20yr olds at RockYou. I didn't get what the point was at all. You spent most of the video trying to make fun of the kid wearing the suit, why? You could have done something insightful at least... Sorry, but what was the point of that video?
