Keep dreaming. Facebook is here to stay.

I mean, even my mom uses it for god's sake.

Yeah, that's what they said about AOL.

I think that's part of the problem, though. Once your parents, coworkers, and old acquaintances have littered your friends list it is no longer a fun experience. To me Facebook just feels like such a chore.

Agreed. Facebook has already become a giant contact list for me, I don't feel like I can "be myself" there b/c of the varied audience (from kid cousins to random ex-coworkers).
