@eigenrobot do you know of research into the adversarial relationship between upstart social networks and established networks they post to?
wish I had more. you could probably do well starting with this Tirole survey/consolidation for an analytic framework http://publications.ut-capitole.fr/1189/1/platform.pdf …

facebook is a two-sided market where one of the sides is often another two-sided market that's competing with FB

which ties that framework into a pretzel

I guess NYSE and BATS kind of have that relationship so it's not so weird

Yeah, it's a bit confounding. I don't know enough about FB econ/am not smart enough to have clean intuition about how equilibrium plays out.

My impulse is to frame FB + FB advertising competitors as sort of semi-complementary networks, but . . . murky, inchoate
