I stopped reading the feed too. People were never going to leave facebook in droves. But the controversies eventually become exhausting to the point where it's difficult to justify regular visitations, which is a hit to facebook. Social networking have been deprecated in the past. It happened to myspace, and friendfeed before it. I remember the proponents of myspace arguing it couldn't lose momentum when it was at its peak, but it surely did. Perhaps predicting these things is a bit of a black swan event.
