The future of Facebook is uncertain


The last few days has been much speculation about Facebook. And most will not predicted a good future. After the fall into the bag and polls showing the reluctance of users, all seems to presage the end of the reign of Mark Zuckerberg. But are we really facing the end of the social network that changed our lives in recent years? To Matt Silverman of the renowned technology blog Mashable, you need another service appears to displace Facebook to talk to the network. In addition, there are some circumstances that would cause a rapid decline in the company of Mark Zuckerberg. For example, a clear danger to the social network is reaching the point of including so much information that it becomes a mini-internet itself. This means that to access any information on Internet users necessarily have to go through Facebook, and, of course, conform to its rules. This goes against the idea of ​​free space and Internet users would see it and reject, which could cause a collapse in the social network. In addition, Facebook can generate a large rejection if included initiatives such as SOUP or CISPA (Zuckerberg was against the first, while supporting the second). These proposals will cause distrust to users. Silverman believes that other possible causes of the collapse of the social network may be the passage of the web to your smartphone (so far failed in the case of the social network), and even the low penetration of Facebook in China (if the Chinese decide to join while another social network, Facebook would be moved). The truth is that these changes are not foreseen in the short term, so that Zuckerberg can breathe easy. However, the biggest challenge will be in the coming years.
