What is ZiiTrend?

So AOL didn't do a deal with Yahoo as rumors suggested. Instead, the company moved to beef up its online ad presence by acquiring London's most famous social network. AOL, which has been struggling to reposition itself as an Internet company, agreed to buy London-based Bebo for $850 million in cash.

Let's predict if another social network (wit more than 5% market share in US) will get acquired in 2008.

    I am 100% certain that a social network will be acquired by a larger company by the time this poll closes.
