Also you touch upon Facebook's continual future dominance, I agree, if they don't embrace an open social approach, they could be in serious trouble in the future. http://blog.brendanmitchell.com/2008/12/23/unsocial-networks-or-why-facebook-has-got-it-wrong-as-open-social-is-the-future/

Over 30% of Canadians have a Facebook profile. If the same proportion of population adopt it in Spain, France, Italy, Germany etc it doesn't take much imagination to see the Facebook global usage figure passing 200 million this year.<br/><br/>It will also be worth keeping an eye on mobile usage. Facebook are now saying that 20.8 million people globally are using their mobile to access the site. These people are going there more regularly than people who just use Facebook from PC. As flat data rates become the norm and take up of newer phones increases, then mobile social network usage will also be interesting to track.
