Good vision, good post.
Yes, all those so-called social networks are just about an ability to say something, because it makes you feel a little better for at least several minutes. The feeling is what matters, not the content itself.
In 2000 - 2001 the livejournal.com service gained a huge popularity in Russia among mass-media and hi-tech workers. It were really good times.
It was a possibility to say something aloud, and to feel this so necessary feeling of being not alone, which, of course is mere an illusion.
That is why facebook got their 200 million users - I see them each day in those internet caffees in Thamel, uploading all the same almost identical photos and writing almost the same banal stories.
Self-exibition as another time-killing and keeping-the-mind-busy process, why not? Twitter is also here.
