Default 10 years from now will Facebook be bigger or smaller?

Define bigger as more active users and more integration with your daily life.

Nonexistent. Replaced by something else.

Smaller. People's preferences move so fast that something new will probably come along, but I have no idea what it'll be like. I wish I did though, so i could start making billions.

By this definition, smaller.

I think it will have as many or more users, but people will not be on it as constantly. It might be like a Yahoo, always there but nothing to get excited about.

Smaller. Remember how huge myspace was? Now it's nothing but spambots advertising their cam sites and penis pills to each other.

FB is just newsfeed and profile pics/videos.

It can be replaced, but has to be replaced with something that's 10x better. I'm working on that right now.

but FB is good, people are happy, it works. So there has to be a "reason". Another option, is a companion site to FB to extend it.
