Social Media change?

Only a few days ago I found out that Facebook was going to release some shares to go public. I found out through this video and think its worth the watch.



But also a new social media website, Zurker has come about...
yes, it does sound a lot like the beginning of Zuckerberg and it is aimed at the audience that is unhappy with facebook. While Facebook is going public and the users generating all the content are getting nothing from it, Zurker plays itself as being owned by the users. It is trying to set itself aside from the Silicon Valley and users that share it and promote it receive vShares that might one day be worth something.
For now, it's an interesting concept and it will be fun to see how/if it grows.
