Short summary:
According to the article, Facebook with its initial public offering (IPO) of about $100 billion, 3,000 employees and 800 million users, hopes to dominate over Google. Google has 32,000 employees around the world and about $37.86 billion in annual revenue. In addition to that, Google has its own social network called Google+.

Issues:
# Do you think Facebook (IPO) help Facebook dominate Google?
# Do you think Facebook has got the chance to beat Google?
# Is it easy for Google to be the leader of online world? Why?
# Imagine what would happen if Facebook became dominant?

My Opinion:
I think Facebook is going to dominate the online world because of its rapid improvements that attract millions of users, especially teenagers. Actually, Facebook has increased its investments at a fast rate and in a short time. If Facebook continues to care for the users, definitely it will lead the online world soon.
