Reddit critics throw around the “remember digg” meme a lot, but I really think this time it may happen. The reddit exodus is coming, and Reddit has no lock-in mechanism other than the 1% of community members who post content.
Actually, same goes for Facebook, when is it going to have its MySpace moment?
In some ways it feels like we are on the verge of another one of these cycles, ala “web 2.0”
The tech industry is so young that we cannot predict which processes are cyclical. Perhaps there is some social/economic/psychological certainty that we do not understand, underpinning not only the growth and success of major tech companies, but also their inevitable failures.
