At first I thought Facebook wouldn’t last forever, but with the latest developments after the launch of Google+, I call lists instead of circles, improved private settings and a new lay-out, I’m not sure anymore. If Facebook keeps adjusting their settings to the world’s needs, they could emerge as a keeper.
But then again I’m curious about what Google+ next steps will be. Off course they have the advantage that they are already very popular with other features like Gmail, Google Maps and many more. I think eventually these programs will be installed on Google+ and this will make it harder for Facebook to compete. Facebook is never going to get the licence to use these programs, so they will have to come up with other features to keep us happy.
What will it be in the future; will Google+ take over the as the leader? Will Facebook hold our interest? Or will a whole new social network be invented? I can’t wait to find out!
