We easily forget that Facebook was one of the first social networks that insisted that we use REAL names, and policed personal profiles accordingly. Recall that MySpace was the logical heir to the online profile/social network world pioneered by Geocities, Tripod, and Angelfire. Facebook is the Model T of social networks.

Twitter’s role as a conduit for the Zeitgeist is unrivaled, and it has almost single-handedly ushered in the era of real-time search, and social CRM. But, it’s the online equivalent of HBO – important more because of who uses it and the media’s infatuation with it, rather than the actual size and impact of its audience.
