In the age of social networking, there are several popular names such as Twitter, MySpace, and of course Facebook.
Facebook  has dominated the social networking market for some time now.
It is growing at an unbelievable rate with thousands of users joining each day.
However, despite the rapid expansion, Facebook is on a downhill slope that will ultimately lead to it losing funding and selling out.
Since the economy has been killed, companies have been looking for funding.
Facebook is one of these companies.
Now that it is exploding, the social network has had more than enough funding and the owners keep investing in "value" with that funding.
This has worked for sometime now, but the suffering companies that have put their money into Facebook are now wanting their cut.
With investors breathing down their backs, Facebook has hastily been experimenting with different revenue streams.
For now, this is okay because they are only small adjustments to the site.
But they are now stuck at a fork in the road.
They either need to choose the way of the investors and start selling out for their site with the risk of losing members, or they need to focus on building more value and users with the guarantee of losing investors.
It's a tough position to be in, but Facebook is going to have to decide which of the two ways they need to go.
People are already leaving due to the fact that Facebook has become too "mainstream.
" Many users are finding that getting friend requests from their Grandparents and distant relatives is a turn off to using the site.
Many users have already moved on to find the next "big thing" that will allow them to talk with their friends.
Over time, Facebook is going to have to force revenue sources down users' throats.
This will make the user interface extremely annoying to use if usable at all.
By selling accounts and virtual goods, users will leave due to frustration and the fact that they do not get the same user experience anymore.
Facebook is on a sinking ship.
Users will start leaving either out of frustration or because they want to find the "next big thing.
" When this happen, investors will notice the drop in value and become uninterested.
It will be the death of Facebook.
