Well, you can't be everything for everyone.
IMO, the big problem with Facebook is the message-board style feed. I want my events in a separate app; and I don't want to get sucked into some online chat every time I need to open the app.
Same goes for groups.
Another problem is moderation. HN is awesome because the moderation is so good. Facebook lets hapespeach go all over the place.
If you try to tackle this, start small and grow organically.
