I think something roughly Facebook-shaped was inevitable.

  Before Facebook there was Myspace and Orkut (which was huge in Brazil) - things were definitely pointed that direction.

    Facebook's hook was that at first it was only at certain colleges, and then it expanded but I think you still needed an invite to join. In the early days it wasn't full of high schoolers and junior high kids like MySpace was. Facebook really used exclusivity and FOMO to drive viral growth.
