Industry Note: On a not so surprising note, Facebook continues to expand and will be hiring thousands of employees in locations such as NYC, Seattle, and likely in their new Austin location with the acq of Gowalla this past week. This growth of talent will impact our overall space as startups vying for software engineers will have to compete with lucrative equity packages from FB in those key markets. Often a secondary market of third party developers often emerge spurring on additional growth using the FB API.
