Facebook executives recently admitted that younger teenagers are abandoning the site for newer mobile messaging and social sharing apps, while a study from earlier this year found that the social network lost 11 million active users overall in the U.S. and Britain. Here are some options Facebook is considering to retain its existing users and win back those who have defected:
Offering new users an enticing sign-up package of 10 free stock images and 50 starter friends
Adding a fun 15-second Facebook jingle that plays on a loop as long as the page is open
Opening a cool spot with refreshments in the Facebook headquarters basement just for teens
Giving everyone 10 bonus Sparkle Circus points
Attracting young users by creating fake profiles for such teen idols as Tony Hawk, Bob Burnquist, Rodney Mullen, and Bucky Lasek
Cool car will be digitally added to background of every profile photo
Posting a delicious new recipe every day
Maybe some more Christian Singles sidebar ads
