Facebook may lose 80% of users by 2017, say Princeton researchers
The thing about infectious diseases (the model they are using) are that the virii just die and that's that. What is not clear is where 80% of Facebook's users would <i>be</i> in 2017. Google+ ? Somehow I don't think so. This would be much more compelling for me if there was some Facebook alternative that was growing rapidly in the 14 - 24 demographic but the Princeton guys don't mention one, and I've not come across it yet. Its hard for me to believe that 80% of Facebook's users will stop using it and go back to no equivalent.
