I noticed this story on FoxNEWS.com (http://www.foxnews.com/story/0,2933,494064,00.html)

"The Consumerist blog noticed Sunday that the social-networking giant had quietly made a change to its user Terms of Service (TOS) on Feb. 4.

"Facebook now declares that it has a perpetual license to use anything you post to your own Facebook page — even if you terminate your account."

How does TDPRI look at ownership of content here?

Facebook will go under in a few years like every "free to everyone" social networking service once it's user base gets too big and some new shiny thing comes along, and all the content will just vanish. I'd be more worried about folks who use it as repository for anything without backup.

Remember mp3.com? Friendster?

MySpace seems a lot quieter these days. I gotta agree with the above
