You think people want Facebook to fail? My impression is the opposite.

Seems like everyone with money invested in web 2.0 really wants them to succeed. Your argument works equally well there. Don't be so sure of Facebook's infallibility, either.

Basically, everybody just chill out.

True. If Facebook fails then it's all the "web 2.0" world that will be affected, I hear a lot of people talking of another bubble about web 2.0. Some want their convinctions vindicated, others want to save their start up and money.

My bet is that the truth is in the middle as usual, just like when the first bubble bursted, it was a godsend who cleaned up all the mess produced by the basical non-understanding of the internet.
