Yeah! FB will die down soon enough!!

I disagree. We'll never see a human migration on that scale. I don't view it as competition to this platform either. We're the paper, they're the paperboy. Twitter is another paperboy. Very useful tools those paperboys, especially when you'd like to drive more eyes to the paper, here.

Well most of the Twitter and Facebook users use them only because it's widely used and it's much easier for them to use these, ummm... paperboys ... But with people getting more privacy minded they will make a move towards decentralisation ... I don't expect it to be a huge migration but I think people would slowly move away from facebook and Google

Content creators, whether they're independent or massive mainstream sources; they don't post their content on Facebook or Twitter. It's where the consumers congregate and share links, spreading the content around, like a paperboy delivering papers. Social media is a distribution tool. Content platforms are what gets distributed. Facebook you have friends a family. They're sharing content but it would be weird to sell your photo album of baby pictures. The posting of selfies and stuff like that. Who browses selfies? Maybe on a dating site one does that. I'm just saying there are two different branches. One is social media distribution, the other, like Youtube, or the higher quality content here, is a social content platform. But we don't really need the word social in there because it's obvious society is using it. And it's all evolving.
