I find Twitter almost worthless... because none of my friends use it. They all use Facebook. This doesn't mean that I will declare Twitter a lost cause.
Facebook is a pillar of social life in college. I can see how people from generations and networks that were only recently opened up to Facebook might struggle with the service, but it's important to understand that The Book is so integrated into the social life at universities these days that it's not going anywhere soon. The usefulness of a social network to any person is directly correlated to how much your network uses that service. The photo tagging feature alone makes it worth it. I didn't even have a camera for two years and have hundreds of photos thanks to the tagging. Sharing photos, posting stories, communicating with friends, planning & rsvping events, reconnecting with old friends, seeing activity in your network, using dumb apps - aren't these valid "goals" that people might have coming to the site? ________________________________________________________________ Welcome to the Interaction Design Association (IxDA)!
