There students who are already working on an alternative to Facebook that truly is college only. It's only been up a week, but the site is decent for what they've had to work with. http://www.replacefacebook.com./ Their claim is that the site is to be run by the students through use of in site voting/discussion mechanisms.
Not really. GeoCities is an ad-paid free hosting service for script kiddies, Slashdot is an aggregated news site for script kiddies.
This is more like saying there is something better coming, and posting a link to a site that's been up for a week. Give them a chance man. Not everyone has to have venture capital to succeed. They just need time and talented people.
A group of students decided to replace Facebook with a student built and operated site... If Facebook really has lost touch with its userbase, perhaps these guys can offer a decent alternative to MySpace/Facebook for students.

I signed up, it's a little low on features, but they've only had a week. I think it's something to keep an eye on.
