In three years.....

Three years ago, Facebook was just becoming popular, and I don't think anyone really knew about Twitter. Now, they are both used by nearly everyone in the world - whether they are using it for business, to stay in contact with close friends, or for dating purposes, millions of people use these social networks. I think that in 3 years, there will be other websites that come out that will allow you to chat face to face. Yes, you can leave videos on people's facebook, but there is a program called Skype, where you can video chat with others. Over the next three years, I think this tool is going to become even more popular, and possibly overpower the almighty Facebook and Twitter. When I was in high school a few years back, MySpace was the cool, popular site. Now, younger generations use this network and I believe in a few years, Facebook will not be essential enough for the current generation using it, and it will be passed down to the younger generation, the same thing that happened to MySpace. Eventually, it will all be over and the world will move on to the new popular site.

No matter what happens to the two most popular social networks over the years, I think that it is safe to say, there will always be another site to replace them. I believe Web2.0, whether Facebook, Twitter, YouTube, LinkedIn, or all the others one I don't know of, are very beneficial for the society, but like everything else in the world - over time, things change. There is no exception to the wonderful world of Web2.0!
