Looks like something facebook would buy. Do you consider them as competition ?
Why would facebook be interested in making it easy to use a technology that they directly compete against?
Maybe Facebook just wants to take out the competition.
There is no technical barrier stopping facebook from doing this, however Facebook stands to gain much much more in promoting an ecosystem for companies such as ourselves to exist. They traditionally haven't encroached on this space.
Please don't sell it to Facebook when it will kick off
Are they trying to steal facebook's strategy?
It's Facebook you're talking about. I'm not sure why you'd think they would make the right choice instead of chasing $.
Facebook might be sensing that their market is dwindling as other vendors catch up. They might be trying to extract value why they have the lead.I honestly have no idea though. I don't get why they're in this space as it doesn't appear from the outside that they're trying very hard.
why not. Facebook can afford it
For the last point : Facebook bought all the potential Facebook replacements
