Here's a good analysis of why it flopped and why it probably won't get much better and why it doesn't matter to the kids on top of the pyramid ~

I am no celebrity hound, but I read "updates" about Zuckerberg's wedding the day after going public.

People were told they were attending Chan's graduation from medical school party

They were fed food from two restaurants in the area Chan and Zuckerberg liked at an average of $7.50 per guest.

Her dress costed 4,000 dollars

The ring was 25,000.

Some would call out "cheapskate", but I see it as a show of modesty. Kudos. If they had gone whole hog, their would have been a lot of naysayers about the extravagance as so many people were losing money on FB or showing no gain.
