Don't know about that yet - but techcrunch says its a all stock or mostly stock acquisition.

Did friendfeed have a viable revenue model so far?

I think facebook wanted their technology. Facebook has fallen pretty flat on their "real-time" feed whereas friendfeed has thrived. Get ready for facebook to see a spike in how their real-time feed works ;-)

Probably wanted their team more than their tech.

Given that Facebook launched their realtime search today, that would be a pretty amazing integration time...
