Microsoft Buying Facebook for $6 Billion?

The rumor of the day seems to be that Microsoft is buying Facebook for $6 billion. This would be huge news if true. While I’m fairly skeptical of this, especially since $6 billion is a ton of money, it would still be a smart move by Microsoft. Last month I mentioned why Microsoft should buy Facebook. The main focus of my argument was that Microsoft needs something to help them gain ground in online search.
