To hate something in most cases means that you loved it before. And really can't understand how people loved this "thing" other than the reasons that I mentioned above. Never liked it and never used it in real. My account is there since 2007 but very rarelly I'm going online.

What I believe that made it popular comparing with forums is that forums are for specific users (eg fans of a game console, fans of fishing, or (more specific) technicians), while FB is an arena open to all. It started as a way to connect old schoolmates and finished as "anything for all".

But again I have a feeling that forums (at least the way that we know them), should be out of field soon. It's just a feeling and nothing more. Evolution. That's why I mentioned before Newsgroups. Maybe forum software need a refresh. Maybe to give more attention to mobile access. The current solutions for mobile access is for fun. Needs deeper analysis... less features but more speedy. Or something like this.

I seen somewhere a chat (that one that exist at the bottom line, just like FB), which was working by talking to it. It was funny... but really worked. I tried it even with my bad English (and the old voice), but it wrote the message correct.

Maybe some features like posting by SMS or (cheaper) post by email. Really don't know. But they need a refresh for sure.
