At current prices, which social media stock are you more likely to make a long-term investment in?
That's the question Benzinga posed in a Twitter poll on Friday morning, amid the huge selloff in LinkedIn and broad selloff in tech stocks. After about three hours, the vote was neck and neck between the two most popular social media sites, albeit one that has not been a big a Wall Street darling as the other.
- Facebook Inc FB: 34 percent
- Twitter Inc TWTR: 34 percent
- LinkedIn Corp LNKD: 14 percent

Interestingly, 18 percent said they would not make a long-term investment in any of the three companies.
