NEW YORK (Reuters) - Two top U.S. financial regulators called for a review of the initial public offering of Facebook last week, putting fresh pressure on the company, its embattled lead underwriter and the Nasdaq. After Friday's [May 18] nearly flat close and Monday's [May 21] 11 percent plunge, Facebook shares were down 8 percent at $31.28 in late afternoon trading Tuesday [May 22] on heavy volume of 88 million shares. At that price the company has shed more than $17 billion in market capitalization from its $38-per-share offering price last week.

SAN JOSE, Calif. -- Yahoo Inc. and Facebook Inc. are joining forces to test an iconic 1960s-era social experiment that showed there are just six degrees of separation between most people on the planet. The world's population has almost doubled since social psychologist Stanley Milgram's famous but flawed "Small World" experiment gave people a new way to visualize their interconnectedness with the rest of humanity. Something else has also changed -- the advent of online social networks, particularly Facebook's 750 million members, and that's what researchers plan to use.

The power of social media tools like Twitter and Facebook to fan the flames of upheaval along the Nile must keep potential dictators up late at night. The Mubarak government's ham-fisted order to cut off Egypt's electronic access to the outside world on Jan. 27 is a potent reminder of how deeply strongmen resent the freedom of speech the Internet embodies. Although service was restored Wednesday, Egypt's response to troublesome tweets is not so foreign. A number of schemes are in the works to grant U.S. leaders similar powers in the name of fairness and safety. Sen. Joseph I. Lieberman, Connecticut Independent, introduced legislation last session that would have given a White House cyberczar Mubarak-like power to declare an emergency and issue directives to any private companies deemed ...

Anyone who still doesn't believe in the power of the Internet and social media just needs to look at the events of the last few weeks in Egypt. A popular protest movement organized by young web-savvy revolutionaries using Facebook and Twitter took only 18 days to topple the authoritarian regime of Egyptian President Hosni Mubarak, a despot who ruled that country for nearly three decades. The face of the revolution was a 30-year-old Google marketing manager named Wael Ghonim, who took a leave of absence to help mobilize the groundswell of protests in Egypt. The large-scale demonstrations were planned from a Facebook page and in Google chat rooms, while instructions for protesters to march to Tahrir Square in Cairo, the epicenter of the protest, were given via Twitter.

A candidate makes a verbal slip at a campaign event. Newspaper and television reporters scramble to ask the candidate to clarify the comment and then seek out opponents and others for reaction. It could be hours before the information makes it on a news website or broadcast and a day before it's immortalized in print. At the same time, an attendee at the campaign event scribbles the potentially inflammatory remark on a piece of paper. She takes her smart phone out and within seconds posts an update on her Facebook page. The entire world sees it.
