I admit that I was one of those early cheerleaders who were sure that Diaspora could replace Facebook. I'm sad that the vision it started with has faded. Hopefully someone, somewhere, will be able to knock Facebook out with something better.
Internet Collective Action is people organizing in a nonhierarchical manner to accomplish a particular goal. The reward is in the doing, and how much or how little anyone participates is completely voluntary, depending on their abilities and commitment to the goal. By this process amazing things can be accomplished. ICA will grow so long as the Internet is free. http://www.lisamcpherson.org/pc.htm is an example of ICA.
