$20b for WhatsApp... Do you know why it sold for so much, compared to Oculus? It may just be my U.S.-centric frame of reference but WhatsApp doesn't seem very forward thinking or even that relevant now. $2b seems like chump change comparatively, especially for something with so many possibilities down the road.

Yeah, kb is right, WhatsApp is very popular everywhere else and it's market share is growing rapidly in places like India where the size of the market is enormous. -a strategic purchase.
