What on earth does market cap have to do with anything? Their margins are negative 30 percent, and their cash flow is like 150 million dollars. Increasing revenues doesn't mean a whole lot of you're losing money on every sale.

Facebook has 3 properties which have more users than Twitter (Facebook, Whatsapp, Instagram). Facebook itself has more active users than Google and has another property, Whatapp which is also close to or just over that billion user mark.

And they are already reporting profits.
