Like a lot of people, I was bit stunned to see headlines early this week proclaiming Facebook is losing members. In many cases, those reporting this story also were asking whether it means Facebook is heading toward a decline. My take is that Facebook is in no more danger of going under today than it was yesterday, which is to say that it’s still the social media juggernaut that it has been for the past several years. The speculation about Facebook’s demise was sparked by Inside Facebook, a website devoted to tracking, analyzing and reporting on every move Facebook makes.
