Before I start, I think this graph is ultra biased.  1000+ days ago was 2008.  Facebook was released in parts first to college, then to high school, then to entities.  Twitter was created in 2006, to the still lingering question, “What do I do with this.” Google being the number 1 search engine by a huge margin, has been creating rumors about their social network.

Twitter has recently exploded with 3rd parties applications that post just about everything from where you are to how much you weight to, how popular you are in the virtual world.  Well I hate it, and if I hate it, then the world hates it. We all know that I know what the world wants.  Well I propose a solution, after the jump.
