A lot has changed since last year Google got under the leadership of Larry Page as the CEO. The company did everything they could to stop social network king - Facebook from ruling the web. In this fight, Google introduced Google Plus, changed their privacy policies and even altered with their search result algorithms. It's hard to understand the company's famous motto of "Don't be evil" when all they do is act evil. Facebook in contrast in growing enormously with Timeline, news ticker updates and also Timeline for Brand Pages.
It's a never ending fight with the ultimate goal of increasing revenue through advertisements. Google surely is the winner here but increasingly it's facing competition from Facebook. Keeping this virtual fight apart, the facts and numbers truly tell us where each of the Internet Titans stand. Have a look below:

Google - $36.5 billion
Facebook - $3.2 billion.
