When it comes to comparing blockbuster Internet IPOs, make no mistake: The sequel produced by Facebook will be a bigger hit than the original from Google (GOOG) eight years ago.
At the same time, however, the very success of this week’s Facebook offering will make it harder for retail investors to make the kind of money on its shares that they did on Google, which tripled in their first year.
