I know that I can make a specific statement and have everyone agree to it... yes I can!!!! :) And I'm going to write it out in bold letters with the color red because I'm just that awesome.
"Social Networks like Facebook, Myspace, Twitter, and now the coming giant ~ Google+ will soon find out (if G+, and Twitter hasn't already) that in order to keep an already popular social network popular, one needs to simply do nothing more."
It's true that in reality, we have liberal and progressive parties that protest for change, however, these groups' aims are for improving a situation (whether, social, economical, etc.). Do these social network communities (SNC) demand for change? Yes, but not the same change that's been on the minds of these social network giant's web design teams.
SNC will only demand change in three situations:
1. If the social network has forcibly changed it's webpages, claiming to feed the desires of SNC, but in actuality, no one asked for change. Therefore, the change demanded is for a change back to the original.
2. If new technology (a new interface, useful gadgets, apps, etc.) is presented. In order to stay the top social network, the network system needs to keep up with it's tech.
3. If other networks have better & faster tools for communication, as well as provide simplicity (i.e. people chose Facebook over Myspace). This will happen to Facebook if Google plus keeps it simple, and decides to leave the user's pages and tools alone.
Other than the above three demands, SNC if not 98%-100%, are predominately conservative when it comes to inter-web-communications. So, if the social network providers wants to act as this "totalitarian overseer" for SNC, than we will seek another social network that will meet our desires.
