It's no surprise that Facebook is hanging on, the average nerd might avoid it like the plague but the average person doesn't care

I only use Facebook for local community info as I can't get that anywhere else. My fake profile works wonderful for that.

I use it for ice cream. There's a place that makes their own flavors in house and one of the best ways to find out what they have besides checking in (they're not exactly super local to me) is to check their Facebook page. That and occasionally family contact in the event that someone loses a phone or something. That's literally it.
