Web 2.0 is for developed countries only. WTF is somebody from South Africa going to do on a social network? Trade coconuts?

Must agree with you on this one. You look at services like MXit, my younger brothers are always on it.

Yes it has a huge user base, but what are the creators getting from it?

The problem is that anyone can create a pretty zippy social network with services like Ning.

I see the next step bringing the network closer to home and building personal networks that branch out using existing services like FriendFeed, Pulse, Jaiku and the other social aggregators.

Interesting post. But i think you missed the advertising income at the big sites, youtube etc.
But i think you are right in most. A site have to be large to get some real income from ads on the site..
