Good post. With the number of social networks popping up every day, we may have a bubble in this sector alone if they do not figure out how to monetize. Advertising is not the only revenue stream... we may see social networks with no ads at all.

This was also discussed in the Wired story I wrote on BarCamp NYC: <a class="user" href="http://digg.com/tech_news/At_BarCamp_Form_Trumps_Substance_2">http://digg.com/tech_news/At_BarCamp_Form_Trumps_Substance_2</a>Essentially these social networks need to become more niche.

Very good post ... though I wish it had suggested more solutions, not just pointing out the problems.
