Facebook

Late last year, we published a list of the top 10 IPO candidates of 2010.

The lengthy piece, which is well worth reading in its entirety, touches on quite a few issues related to Facebook’s history and its future, and largely revolves around CEO Mark Zuckerberg — who doesn’t sound all that keen to take his company public. While the article covers a lot of familiar territory about Facebook’s past, there’s plenty of new information too.
