Wow, that happened a lot faster than I thought it would. Well, to be honest, I think I wanted Apple to overtake Microsoft more than I ever thought I'd see it happen.
I wonder if in a few years from now Facebook'll overtake MS and Apple? ;)

Both Apple and Microsoft's product help people create stuff, get things done, entertain themselves. Facebook does a tiny bit of entertaining and socializing, it is no where near MSFT or AAPL in terms of having a tangible impact on people's lives.
Having an iPod.... nope.
An iphone might have done it about 2 years ago.
How does Facebook accomplish that? I'd rather count sitting behind your computer as a counterproductive.
Many people have had countless friendships reconnected and met other new people as a direct result of Facebook being as linked up as it is. Whether "tangible" or not, this is at least as valuable as an iPod to many.
