Facebook CEO: We Wouldn't Sell to Microsoft (Either)

Facebook CEO Mark Zuckerberg has no plans to sell the social-networking site, even if Microsoft Corp. offered $15 billion, according to a Bloomberg News report.

That number didn’t come out of the blue—back in October, Microsoft purchased a 1.6 percent stake in Facebook for $240 million, which would place the value of the full company at the above $15 billion figure.

“The goal of the company is to execute on the things we talked about before, such as helping users share information more easily,” Zuckerberg said today at the D: All Things Digital conference in Carlsbad, California, according to the article.
