It seems like Twitter will be more of a fad than the other sites.
But overall, these social networking sites don't seem to be that groundbreaking. Facebook is just a cleaned up version of Myspace. And Myspace is really just a place to build your own homepages.
It seems like the people with the technical knowledge to build and manage these sites aren't really that creative. They see something that is possible, then build a site around it. Like phones have GPS now so someone builds a site that will track all your friends. An interesting novelty but nobody would miss it if it was gone or craved it before it was created.
I would just like to see a social networking site that totally changes the way you do things and look at the internet. Then I would believe the hype.
