Agreed that charging developers is truly stupid and charging your basic user is close, but developing a subscription model for advanced services makes sense. For example, an all you can eat music service. If you view "be something else" as brand extension or premium services, then it makes sense. Not all of the suggestions are worthwhile, agreed. Online bank, no, but applications that directly leverage facebook itself, yes.
