Yup! Some of you might be shocked. Some of you might be relieved. Some might feel meh, couldn't be bothered about it.

Mark Zuckerberg announced that he will shut down Facebook in March.

For more information read THIS (http://weeklyworldnews.com/headlines/27321/facebook-will-end-on-march-15th/)

But I doubt this will happen XD

Facebook pulled in $500million a week or so ago for him, I can't see him shutting it down. Especially since I'm pretty sure it was announced as the most popular social networking site. Mark Zuckerburg might have made a pretty penny off facebook, but I'm sure there's a lot more he can make off it before he comes close to wanting to shut it down :p

On the other hand, if facebook went down, I'm sure someone who create something identical to take it's place - if they could make it as successful they'd get Mark's pretty pennies instead :p

It would take a lot more than just "stress of the job" to have it shut down. It's more likely he'd step down from his position or take a back seat for awhile.

If you look at the comments, some of them are pretty funny - "Oh no without facebook I cant talk to my gf anymore".

We also can't forget the Farmville addicts - without facebook, all thier crops would be withered! Would there be a crop shortage? How would the cope?! =o

Of course you can! I, personally, think that this is all bullshit. Who would want to quit making billions of dollars? Apart from that, the site also is unreliable. Just look at other news! Obama's wife is pregnant, Micheal Jackson is spotted on the moon, we'll be attacked aliens! Huh! What a bullshit.

Anyway, I just created this thread to see your responses and also waiting for a counter news, like yours, Ryo XD

Weird, I just read about how this was a lie a few minutes ago , and now I read this

Also the side news makes me consider if the site itself has any serious merit to it at all

Gotta wonder if they seriously believe that crap, though... I mean, it's so damned ridiculous that it's hard to believe that anyone could believe it, but who knows... There's a bunch of people out there who just aren't right mentally...

Yeah. That's what I said in my post up there. It's something they like to do I think i.e. making up stories.

LOL. I had a good laugh at a few of the articles though.

Oh yeah, me too, but I still gotta wonder if anyone actually believes it.

Someone has to believe it, otherwise people wouldn't keep starting rumors like facebook is shutting down or it'll become a service you have to pay to use. Some people are gullible these days XD

Well, I didn't mean this particular story, more the other crap that site posts.

I meant in general, there's always someone saying facebook will be closed down or become a paid service trying to stir the pot :p

Well, yeah, that's a given. People in general like to spread discomfort to others in one way or another... But honestly, who in their right mind would believe stuff like "MAN FLIES ACROSS ATLANTIC ON PAPER PLANE" and "ATLANTIS FOUND ON GOOGLE MAPS!"

Just seems silly to me.
