Facebook To Be 'Biggest Bank' By 2015
angry tapir writes "The explosion of social networking commerce will lead to the unlikely candidate of Facebook becoming the world's biggest bank by the middle of the decade, according to a technology observer and entrepreneur. People who don't have a Facebook account should get one or risk having a financial profile created for them says founder and president of Metal International, Ken Rutkowski."
More like Mental International, if he thinks anyone believes bullshit like that.

Indeed, if you believe that I've got some Flooz to sell you :)
Let's back WAY up.
Facebook as a BANK?!
How wrong is THAT?
"FaceBook. The bank that Likes you."
I think that to say "Facebook will be the worlds largest bank" is about as accurate as saying "Farmville will be the world's largest agricultural business".
Got to also love the bit here:
"Rutkowski[...] prides himself as being the fist person to coin the term “Web 3.0”"
Fine I'm going to create the term Web 4.0.
I'll get back to you in a few weeks to let you know what it means. Be sure to check my blog regularly for the announcement!

Close. It's actually *Mental Institutional*
