Facebook is becoming the web. Everything you need is there... it is the universe.
Social networking websites like Facebook, Twitter, and Tumblr provide an unparalleled ability for people to stay connected in new and unique ways.
Facebook is so ubiquitous now that it's like another manifestation of the web itself.

Facebook has focused on the conversation, but not really on absorbing the Web into its walled garden.
