Facebook China Rumor Goes On: No Deal Signed

Earlier, Chinese-based source Sohu.com reported that a cooperation agreement between Facebook and Baidu was already signed.

Well, that didn’t put the rumor to an end. Now, Reuters reported that someone familiar with the subject said that Facebook has not signed any agreement with any company in China so far.

Interestingly, we also realized that the earlier report on Facebook and Baidu by Sohu.com was taken down (http://it.sohu.com/20110411/n280213846.shtml).

Both Facebook and Baidu are tight-lipped about the issue and it just keeps the Web guessing. The rumor goes on for now. I wonder what’s next, though. Perhaps talks did take place but no conclusion has been reached yet. What do you think?
