UPDATE: It official. Late Wednesday Facebook filed paperwork for a $5 billion IPO. And the company reveals for the first time how much cash its making. Read more here.
(CNN) The Facebook IPO,[link widoczny dla zalogowanych], or initial public offering, promises to be the holy grail of tech IPOs, possibly the biggest ever.

Investor reaction to Facebook IPO
Money. With public investors putting money into your enterprise, it allows you to raise money quickly. law then requires the books be opened for public scrutiny.
One of the downsides is when you are a public company you are scrutinized by the government. You have to every quarter file your numbers,your balance sheet to stock exchange regulators.
If you a private company you don TMt have that kind of scrutiny you don TMt have investors selling their stakes in your company if you have one or two bad quarters.
Eventually it TMs everyone " such as through mutual funds or bought outright by individual investors,[link widoczny dla zalogowanych], say in anETRADEaccount or something. But at an initial public offering, it the big names who get in, and original investors and founders of the company get a good shot to buy more, if they desire.
Once the stock starts trading " which could be several months down the line " it will answer one big question that has hovered over the internet giant: How much is the company worth? Some say it could reach $100 billion. Also we will know how much money the company makes, and a more transparent sense of Facebook business strategy.
