I'm actually thinking as younger generations come and find a new place to hangout I think Facebook can be unseated, not easily but in the same way other social networks have fizzled. Google is just a utility, and I think most people really don't care what search engine they are using, just bing and yahoo.. hasn't really given anybody a real reason to switch. Where as when it comes to social status, and hanging out where the cool kids are.. this can cause a shift very fast.

In addition, it makes more sense to put some ads for free utility service, but the same ads can be very annoying in the contexts of social communication.
Kinda what Tumblr have become of late, seems like a lot of younger people have began moving at least some of theironline presence over.
