It won't surprise me if it is trading at $25 to $30 this time next year. Look at the PE compared to an Apple or Google. With a billion or so current users I'm not sure how revenues are going to majorly increase while at the same time not driving people insane with ads.

I thought another appeal of Facebook was the fact that it started as a closed gate college thing which had the exclusivity thing going for it. Then it opened up and everyone wanted in.

From an investors point of view though, FB is going to be pretty volatile for a while, and I doubt it will increase in value to be above it's opening value of $38. FB set the number which was over priced.
For a company that actually doesn't produce anything substantial and utilizes an unproven revenue model, it's going to take a major shift in investor confidence for things to turn around. How do you track on paper FB's success or failure? By looking at your friend's friend list and see he has more poeple there thanhe did last week? Let's not forget the Dot com explosion was not long lived. How long qwill FB survive as a pubic company? The pressures on the company now are far greater thanthey ever were... I would expect FB will change considerably over the next few years... and not for the better. Myspace may yet make a comeback, or some other website.

Who knows.
