That said, Google had to at least take a shot at unseating fb, despite the long odds, because of the sheer market potential involved. But fb has possibly the most powerful network effect enjoyed by any company on earth working in its favor. Its users have also made a very large investment, over a long period of time, in creating content, uploading media, and other things like refining who comes up on news feed, etc. So there is a lot of stickiness despite what might nominally seem like a costless switch to G+.
