Facebook is used by different people for many different purposes.

In Ukraine right now it is the default news channel for the opposition with the mass protests going on now, and has served a similar function in other countries.

For some people it's a way to stay in touch with close friends.

For others it's a way to occasionally keep in touch with more distant friends.

Others use it as a contact/ address book.

Others use it for games.

I don't think it's going to die out, instead it's going to evolve.

I also do think it's possible it might die out, but way too early to know what will happen.
