"until almost everyone you know has a regularly used facebook account"

In other words, never.




I'm not sure about that. Picture some widely-used public school management package written to be used over the Facebook API. Suddenly, every new student [high school students, remember, not college] has to get Facebook, as part of the enrollment process. Then, since all the friends they make at school already "use" the service, they start really using it.


I'm in a class in college where we have to have a facebook in order to participate.
