I personally think that in someways facebook is over hyped, especially regarding the apps which are largely superflous however I use internal facebook messaging more than I use email now.
So perhaps until almost everyone you know has a regularly used facebook account, it will be hard for people to fully appreciate the value of it.
Interesting anecdotal evidence: A lot of people leave Myspace and Bebo to join Facebook. I've never heard the opposite of this happening.

- derefr 19y agoI'm not sure about that. Picture some widely-used public school management package written to be used over the Facebook API. Suddenly, every new student [high school students, remember, not college] has to get Facebook, as part of the enrollment process. Then, since all the friends they make at school already "use" the service, they start really using it.
