I look at internet social networks the same way I look at home entertainment technology: it's an unconscious popularity contest where one group that has to be elitist and supplant their control over the rest of the groups for the sake of the status symbol.
Wait, how can I make this more confusing?
Ass #1 gets into to supporting one format of home entertainment like CED Video Discs, someone that is larger and more important called Ass #2 has decided that another format which is supposably better compared to the one you are using is now the dominant format like videotapes and Ass #1 has wasted an x amount of money on an obselete technology. Ass #3 sees what Ass #1 and Ass #2 are doing and figures another form of home entertainment will be coming along like laser discs and screw over Ass #2 (in reality, Ass #2 got the upper hand on that one).
My mindset is why go to the latest fad when it's going to be out of fashion once enough people get sick of it and wait for the next one, as someone higher up and lower down is going to screw over the masses.
