    Youtube. Where else can I watch relatively obscure stuff I'm interested in, any the time?

    <iframe title="YouTube video player" class="youtube-player" type="text/html" width="640" height="390" src="http://www.youtube.com/embed/jsbszEMbksI" frameborder="0" allowFullScreen></iframe>

    Facebook? I don't need to hear every ten minutes to pore over the, excruciating minutia, of every, single, daily event...

    THIS. We are no longer the demographic Zuckerberg is targeting. He dominated the college scene and is now expanding. We're old news to him as well. It was nice when it was just college kids keeping up with one another.

    Facebook is humanity's response to the inevitable doom of significance of the individual. I think most people that use it are dying for attention, have little self-esteem, and are hurt at the realization that the world doesn't revolve around them.

    Case in point are people who "check in" to restaraunts....."HAIZ GUYZ I'M EATING AT CHILI'S JUS THAWT YALL SHOOD KNOE!!!1!"......are you friggin serious?

    Been on facebook since 2004. Haters gonna hate, but it definitely was a lot better 7 years ago when it was only for college students.

    don't bet on it. The gaming world within facebook represents a paradigmatic shift in how to make money via social gaming.

    A competitor of facebook has a huge uphill battle to dislodge all the money that is going into and being made by gaming companies using the facebook framework.

    There's always sites like vimeo, collegehumor and etc for funny videos.

    There's only one Facebook.

    What was better about it?

    FB for me. It helps me stay in touch with folks from the past.

    I have an account on both sites, but I enjoy and spend FAR more time on YouTube. You can do most of the things you do on Facebook on YouTube anyway. Even update your status (YouTube calls it a 'bulletin').
