Will Facebook Survive As We Know It?

Facebook began as a social network site primarily for college students. It was fairly exclusive.  When I signed on I had to swear in blood that I actually ministered to college students. (Something like that.)  Now anyone can join; and anyone is joining.  The average age of my new friends is twice the age of a traditional college student or Facebook’s founder; whichever is younger. 

 

I think the same thing happened to Myspace when it went away from being a place for bands to display their music to the world.  I gave up Myspace earlier this year. 

 

I am still doing a considerable amount of ministry on Facebook. It is really the only way college and high school students ever contact me, but I wonder if the aging trend continues if Facebook will survive.  Will college students look for an alternative? 

 

If you do, let me know.  I and some of my friends want to come along.
