Facebook? I heard their stock was way down as well.
Google is pretty safe

Stock goes up and down. If I was a trader I wouldn't be a daily trader I'd be in it for the long run. Facebook may have droped since going public, but it could go huge. There was a time when Apple nearly went out of business, everyone who bought stock back then would have been happy after the iPod hit the market.

Apple has always had a tangible value... Facebook will never have one, its all based on hopes and wishes.

Exactly, you'd have to be quite a fool to invest in Facebook. Reality is clear and it's not the value it was floated at. There really is no genuine potential there moving forward. It's got all the customers it's going to get.
With the other companies, I dunno...Was thinking Sony might be an interesting one to look at but there's even some talk of parts of the company being sold off or even a complete collapse in the next few years so, not so sure.
In terms of the rest, well, again they are all big gambles because their value can be made or broken with a few bad releases.
Might be better off just going down the bookmakers and "investing" on a horse.
