Yes. People want change hence social web sites are giving good time pass.

Yeah. Why do you doubt it?
--> Facebook has 500m+ users
--> there are more than 100 million blogs
--> Top blogs are equally powerful to the media houses
--> Most of the companies are in Facebook, LinkedIn, Twitter or all
--> Youtube gets almost half of all time spent in internet
--> Wikipedia is the best source of information on most of the topics
When all the customers, potential customers and competitors are in Social Media Networks, I dont think it is replaceable anytime soon!!!!

I think at this point people are doing both and will be for a while. Many people still want the face to face meeting you get at a networking event especially in business. I also think age can make a difference. So doing both is important.
