The Big Social Pop: 3 Factors Fueling a Social Media Bubble

October 6, 2010

Maybe it’s just me, but it sure seemed like long before the site had a #1 box office film bearing its story and grossing a respectable $23 million in its opening weekend, Facebook and the rest the sites that compose the social media phenomenon were already ubiquitous in our society.

In fact, I think Facebook and Twtiter have become so mainstream, you could create a wildly successful frat party drinking game out of how often the logos are punching us in the face, a nearly 24/7 occurrence these days:

1. Grab an 18 pack and three buddies.

2. Everyone crowd around the TV, and using your remote, scan through commercials.

3. Anytime the players see or hear a solicitation by the company or spokesperson in a commercial soliciting viewers to “follow them” on Facebook, Twitter, or any other social networking site, or flashes the logos on the screen, each player must drink.

4. The last person to drink loses, and has to follow Lindsey Lohan on Twitter for the next 6 months.

OK, so my penalties are a little too harsh, but the point is that people, organizations, companies, and well, everyone are piling into social media and online networking sites by the (probably) billions everyday – the classic “craze” signature of a bubble – and that kind of inflation and obsession can’t sustain forever.

The social media bubble isn’t your typical bubble, however, because the sites we belong to aren’t really an asset with any monetary value to us. But I don’t think that means it couldn’t pop, and when it does, which social media companies will survive, and which will be caught naked and void of value, importance, and relevancy?
