The anticipation of the Facebook
IPO will, more than likely, be more interesting - and at minimum, more entertaining - than the actual
IPO itself.
So much so, that it seems as though there's at least one Tweet every second about the upcoming Facebook
IPO (Follow the #Facebook conversation here.)
What are some of the key voices saying about Facebook's debut tomorrow? Here's a rolling list of observations - some serious, some not - from some social influencers
@newsfromIN keeps tabs on:

Official #Facebook IPO slogan: "You've already wasted your time on Facebook. Now waste your money."
Jeff Benjamin @Jeff_Benjamin
Facebook IPO mood has officially shifted from over-hyped hysteria to critical piling on, which is probably where it should be.

I have my wife waking me up every 2 hours just to make sure I don't miss any Facebook news overnight, the most important event in history.
GabbyW @PMGabby
I'm starting to feel real bad about Friday, y'all. A lot of people are going to get swindled. #Facebook

When $2B vanishes on Wall St it's a "trading loss." When $100B vanishes it's a "Facebook IPO."
Sen. Chuck Schumer @ChuckSchumer
Co-founder Eduardo Saverin ‘defriended' U.S. to avoid taxes.
@SenBobCasey & I announce plan to stop him.

Investing in the #Facebook IPO is kinda like investing in a "Mood Ring" or "Pet Rock"...Sure, it's big now…

So what Zuck is 28? Lindbergh crossed the Atlantic at 25, Edison's first patent was at 21. Marie Curie Nobel in Physics at 37. #Facebook

Social media companies getting crushed on the markets today: Groupon down 3.5%, LinkedIn down 3%, Pandora down 6%. #facebook #ipo

Fact: if you have money, you should invest it in #Greece, not #Facebook. Greece will still be here in 10 years time, Facebook won't.

Fact: #Greece has 11 mil people and a revenue of $ 215 bn. #Facebook has 900 mil people and a revenue of $ 3 bn. But Facebook is "awesome"
