Can you put a price on Social Networking?

[omfg_its_googles]

I was wondering with this country and world now communicating and depending on the internet and social networking websites like Facebook and Myspace to communicate with friends and family would we start paying to use the services and how much will we pay. I know for a fact that Americans will pay to take surveys and post bulletins and try to get the most friends but the question I am asking will you pay and how much will you pay?

Most of these websites are monetized via targeted ads.

Some, like linkedin.com and ryze.net have tiered memberships, with basic functions for free and advanced functions at a price, which can be justified by their business-value.

I think the fastest way to kill a general social networking website is to begin charging members.
