I was a highschool senior when Facebook came out, back when you needed an email with a university's domain name to sign up. That one was driven by pure FOMO. Everyone's older friends were on it and going to cool frat parties and you were just stuck on the outside looking in. LiveJournal and Myspace had nothing on that.
