It seems to be facebook acknowledging that close-ties networks are of significantly more long term transactional value than the loose-ties network who's value is almost entirely advertorial.
- davidivadavid 9y agoYeah. But what does that mean for their business model?
- dasil003 9y agoNot much. If they can still be the place where all the small communities gather then they still have all the data. It's clearly in Facebook's best interest to provide maximum value to their users; whether that is small or large groups doesn't matter to them.
- tsunamifury 9y agoThey are in a great position with WhatsApp and Messenger to take advantage of the close-ties transactional behavior of the future. In short -- they are extremely well positioned for the next 10 years.
