With un-monitized mobile apps and notifications on every device, it's just a communication tool nowadays. Instagram and Pinterest are what I notice teens using the same way I used Facebook in highschool.
So my predicion: it either becomes like Google and Email...or it dies. But nothing can bring back its coolness factor.

Lots more people have access to the internet, or are internet-savvy enough to use social media sites, than twelve years ago, when MySpace was in its prime.
There were no MySpace apps for iPhone or iPad, because the most popular phone at the time was the old Nokia "snake" phone.
Facebook was started only 6 months after Myspace.
So this isn't just about being in the right place at the right time. Myspace clearly made mistakes and/or executed poorly. They had the lead until mid-2008..
