Considering that it started as a "friend network for college", and many people have participated in this experiment, not knowing that 5 years down the road our private, intimate IM conversations, lulz, and photos would be logged forever, should this be allowed to prosper?
The only problem I have with the "something better will come around" argument is that Facebook is becoming so tightly integrated into so many websites. I don't think it will ever die off.
I just hope their IPO is low enough for me to be able to buy a few stocks!
There'll be a new social networking site in a few years. Then Facebook will slowly die out like MySpace did. I haven't been on MySpace since Christmas time! Which is a long time for my standard. lol. But many of my "friends" on MySpace have deleted their accounts. I had 185 friends at the most on MySpace, last I checked at Christmastime, it was down to 147. I have 377 friends on my Facebook though.

You need more friends.. just joking
Seriously, when myspace was popular and they had all those codes, there was one called "Friend Magnet" or something along that nature. Back then I had about 700 friends but I wanted more, so I pasted the code in and the next day I logged on I had 200 friend request but they may have been spam requests.
It's worth around $50 Billion. Even if it were bleeding money, it would take many years for it to die off.
