I've seen numerous social media juggernauts cone and go over decades. Each was seen as world dominating and unstoppable. Each disappeared into unremembered oblivion seemingly overnight. Facebook is poised to do the same.

Facebook is like Oracle of my generation. As their products fades out of mainstream, they just buy next big thing and keep the ball rolling.
