"It is time to rethink the whole notion of social networking, and start thinking of it as a feature for other online activities."

It is definitely good that people are thinking about the largely subjective product vs. feature dichotomy, and applying some critical thinking to social networking is long overdue. But what if we come to the conclusion that, say, LinkedIn is "just a feature"? Do we have to all stop using it? Please say no.
