I'm hoping Facebook will acquire the same stigma that AOL, an older data roach motel/walled garden, did.

I think a facebook-aim comparison is far better than a facebook-aol one

aol instant messenger is still BY FAR the most popular im network in America

Geeks and hackers can sit here and say the world would be better if everyone used Jabber or some other open protocol, but it won't catch on because...

1) people like aim 2) their friends are on aim
