Twitter's meteoric rise to fame and once they get their business model together, fortune, has been a sight to behold. Since its inception a few short years ago, Twitter has grown to be one of the most powerful and most used social networks on the planet.
When Facebook announced it would be launching 'something awesome' this past Wednesday, many in the industry thought that the mystery new product could be a music service. With Spotify reportedly in cahoots with Facebook, a new music streaming service wouldn't have been a huge surprise, but alas it was not to be.
At a Q&A session at today's Facebook's event, Mark Zuckerberg, the company's CEO and founder, was asked about his opinion on Google+.

Google+ is currently polarizing the web-based community. Whether you love it or hate it, few can deny that Google's first entry into the social networking space (we're not going to count Buzz, because it, well, sucks) has some interesting features.
Two days ago, Google+ was introduced to the world as Google's new social networking endeavor. It featured a new look that was rather uncharacteristic of Google: a dark toolbar and orange buttons. It now turns out that all sites under the Google brand will be getting the new look, starting with Gmail, which now has a Google+ skin.
Facebook has been rather leaky lately. We’ve heard and covered a leaked photo sharing app, “Project Spartan” and a reportedly imminent iPad app. Today, Facebook CEO Mark Zuckerberg, has confirmed the launch of a new Facebook feature/product which is set to be announced next week. Could this be in reaction to all the attention that Google+ has been getting this week? Maybe, just maybe!
As news of the notorious hacking group, Lulz Security (or LulzSec to their friends) disbanding was spreading like wildfire across the blogosphere, the group released one final data dump as a parting gift.
The eccentric group of six anonymous hackers who collectively go by the name of LulzSecurity (or just LulzSec) have announced that they are ending their journey of lulz today.
