To add my two cents, I
use Facebook primarily for the hot debates (politics/religion) when
friends post articles (I'm Pakistani, so you can imagine there is loads
to debate about).
And secondly, it IS a good tool to stay in touch with friends and
family - even distant relatives, as they upload pictures and videos and
the comments allow us to record our reactions after seeing them. Status
updates are another way to connect with other people and are excellent
for extroverts.
Of course people go overboard with these two things I mentioned as
well, and on occasion I might have done that too, but the only
worst-case scenario is that people will 'hide' your posts. Which is
perfectly fine - you only want those people to listen to you who WANT
to listen to you.
I don't care for the quizzes and the games myself. Facebook was almost
destroyed when the apps took over, almost a year ago. Right now the
quizzes are playing the same role. I really think Facebook doesn't need
to evolve much - just stay the same so that we can explain how to
adjust privacy settings to our grandparents (when they secretly get in
touch with their high school sweethearts and need to hide that interaction from their
wives).
