Rage du jour, Facebook expects to increase its staff by 50 per cent this year. CEO Mark Zuckernozzle said in an interview with Bloomberg that while most firms are axing workers to make do, Facebook's revenues are on the rise and capital investments are still flowing in. (As usual, no mention of the fucking amounts involved.) Facebook currently has about 1,000 employees worldwide. Meantime, over at MySpace, the Wizoned of Oz is chewing the fucking carpet after announcing in June that it would lay off nearly 30 per cent of its US-based workforce. MySpace said at the time that its staffing was "bloated" as well as "too big considering the realities of today's marketplace." Ha, fucking ha... No diamonds for Wendy this week. Facebook currently claims to have more than 250 million users, Zuckernozzle apparently thinks that's peanuts compared with what the website can eventually pull in. The full of shit boy wonder actually told Bloomberg that he aims to eventually have 1 billion users on the website. That's 15 per cent of the world's population. What a wanker!
