POPSEmail is the New Social Network Slate says email is going the way of the fax. The NYtimes says it's going the way of Facebook. It's all very confusing. I vote for the latter. As Joe Kraus argues here, email does contain all the information that social networkers refer to as "the social graph" by virtue of all those contact lists. That means Google and Yahoo already have a massive social network. This, along with OpenSocial, seems to be another sign that Facebook is not the Web messiah many make it out to be. The barbarians are at the gate, and Facebook still has yet to even approach Myspace's number of users.
