  Facebook and That $2 Billion    TOPICS

    Once again, the social-networking Web site Facebook is drawing gasps and snorts for its supposedly bubbly valuation. The site, founded in 2004 by a Harvard student, has grown to include millions of users — mostly in college and high school — and has become a sort of proxy for the renewed excitement about certain kinds of Internet startups.
  A while back, BusinessWeek reported that privately held Facebook was looking for a buyer and hoped to get as much as $2 billion — a figure that some said vindicated the power of online assets and others said was a sign that Internet valuations were heading into absurd territory again.
