Even if we had a rough consensus and a very stable running code for a
federated social web, even so it would be complicated to make a dent
in Facebook's market. Even Google is struggling, despite having
thousands of the best developers and architects in its payroll. Just
look at how many of its products have flopped: Orkut, OpenSocial,
Wave, Buzz, Google+. The market is already monopolized and only
something truly innovative could disrupt it.

However, Facebook has one huge weakness: its signal/noise ratio for
each user is very poor, and this is exactly where ISS/IM has
potential. Just take a few minutes from you time to have a serious
look at it. I appreciate it!
