Because it's where people are. I've gone 20 years without using FaceBook but I've definitely missed out on a lot. Whether you're trackng down an old friend, selling something locally, trying to get information on a local business etc. there's no better alternative. That's why so many alternatives to big websites fail. They may be better in theory but if nobody migrates then there's no point
