   Hm, I would consider that a different  question as to what would replace FB and   
   Twitter (I don't see either of them revolutionary--Twitter == BBS wall, FB =   
   BBS messages, finger, etc, on a much grander scale).   
      
   I think there will always be "two big ones": one personal users stick to, and   
   one for business. You can see this happening with FaceBook vs LinkedIn. My   
   opinion is that Twitter type sites are going to die out in the next few years.   
   This is based on what I see at my work role which focuses around these sites   
   and technologies.   
      
   I wouldn't say this in my line of work, but Twitter is for people who need to   
   think they're heard, even if they have nothing to say. It's much more difficult   
   to have a FB and Twitter accounts, and NOT post anything, than it is to become   
   one of those people who post "I'm at KFC, Waterloo" type status updates   
   (personally, I despise seeing updates like this).   
      
   I am as guilty as the next person of posting meaningless updates. I try not to,   
   but it happens. I'm seeing a trend of less and less valuable communications   
   coming via Facebook and Twitter: does anyone else feel the same way? I would be   
   interested in exploring this degradation if anyone also works in this industry.   
      
   As for the "next big thing". I believe it will be a new social network   
   phenomenon called "SyncHack". It will replace FaceBook, Google+, Twitter and   
   Linked In because it will be labelled a "turnkey, best-of-breed enterprise 2.0   
   solution".
