[WHAT]

1. ]  Kevin Roose @NY Mag - an op ed peice from the NY times implying that uber may be more valuable than facebook

[WHY]

1. ] Uber's plan is to outgrow its car-service roots, and become, as investor Shervin Pishevar put it, "a digital mesh" capable of providing all kinds of transportation and logistical services to people in the cities it serves. 
2. ]  Once it has you summoning cars from your phone, the logic goes, it can use that same back-end technology to hook you in for all other kinds of deliveries — food, clothes, Christmas trees. And eventually, like Amazon, it can become something akin to an all-purpose utility — it'll just be a way you get things and go places. 
3. ] It's one of the fastest-growing companies on Earth, having expanded into 22 countries and 60 cities, most in the last several months.
