Facebook, especially with younger people, is a corrupted brand. Youth do not want to go to facebook just because of the connotations behind it.

  I can't speak to other countries, but here in the UK, you basically have to be on Facebook to engage in anything at university. Societies, sports clubs, parties, they're all organised on Facebook. There's not even a comparable service for people to theoretically move to. So I would disagree, it's still a vital service for young people.

    In American universities and with kids in high school and younger, Snapchat and Instagram rule. Also Musical.ly is an up-and-comer with the even younger crowd. Kid's parents and relatives are on Facebook. They don't want their crazy liberal lives on display for their parents, aunts and uncles. As of now Facebook primarily serves as a messenger when one forgets or loses contact information. In America, Facebook is uncool, Instagram is cool. Reminds me of the days Facebook was cool. Warning, my mom has an Instagram account.

      You're missing my point though, Snapchat, Instagram and Musical.ly do not offer features for organising events.
