<\/strong><\/p>\n <\/strong><\/p>\n <\/p>\n <\/strong><\/p>\n 1) Facebook\u00a0doesn’t mimic how we really socialize or talk. <\/strong> In the offline world, we can control who we talk to by simply directing our voice to those we want to talk to. \u00a0Even in the online world, we can do the same on email. \u00a0It’s about control. \u00a0Control over your messages, status updates, etc. \u00a0The public nature of Facebook already freaks out the millions who still do not use it.<\/p>\n <\/strong><\/p>\n <\/strong><\/p>\n <\/strong><\/p>\n <\/p>\n <\/strong><\/p>\n 2) Facebook is boring<\/strong>. \u00a0Let’s face it, after the initial excitement of adding lost friends, former classmates, co-workers, and relatives, you find yourself getting bored by what people post or at a loss to say anything interesting in your status update. \u00a0There are those that don’t really care what people will think and post every little piece of minutia – the Facebook junkies. \u00a0And, yes, I find them entertaining, but it’s not enough to keep someone coming back every day. Email has critical messages and notes that require you to come back (if you want to keep your job or your friends). \u00a0Message boards have personalities that are entertaining and keep folks coming back. \u00a0Sites likeDigg<\/a>,\u00a0Reddit<\/a>, and\u00a0AllTop<\/a> bring the most interesting news and blogs to you and stay fresh, so you keep coming back.<\/p>\n As long as the main form of conversation is a small status update, Facebook will never be that interesting.\u00a0 I think the Social Network of the future will integrate the most interesting media<\/strong> (like YouTube w\/video, Flickr w\/ photos, and AllTop w\/blogs) into everyone’s page as conversation starters. \u00a0It will also allow users to talk in groups (private chat rooms), and over video (like\u00a0Skype<\/a>).<\/p>\n I’ll be the first one in line to sign up for the Social Network of the future with intelligent groups, more privacy features, the web’s most popular media, chat, and video. \u00a0I can dream, so I hope this Social Network will allow me to transport my Facebook,\u00a0LinkedIn<\/a>, and\u00a0Twitter<\/a> data with 1 (or 3) clicks.<\/p>\n Project Managers who use Social Media to manage their projects can learn from these 2 Facebook issues and design their products or internal project conversations in a more controlled and engaging manner.<\/p>\n","protected":false},"excerpt":{"rendered":" Facebook’s meteoric growth finally slowed in June 2010.
