Hire back Owen Van Natta and his team (including Eston Bond) and implement their new design in a modern programming framework.

Emphasize what Facebook lacks: - The ability to compartmentalize your networks according to personas rather than "lists" (i.e., different profile photos for different groups of people, etc)

- Have the service be an arbitrator of sorts between oauth providers

More than anything:

DO NOT TOUCH MUSIC

Let it go for now.
