I agree with your bullishness on Facebook as a whole but the apps things is significantly diluted at this point. Quite frankly when the apps first came out it was HUGE. Everyone was spending hours a day on Facebook and every newspaper, podcast, and blog was praising Facebook. Even Microsoft bought in at a rate of 15 bil. But, now many of my friends have returned back to their original uses of Facebook, messaging, picture sharing and well, stocking.
Personally I think the apps aspect of Facebook is on its way down. It is to diluted and this maybe one situation where Facebook made the wrong decision to open up their platform completely. Keeping some control may have been the better move here. Only time will tell.

Ohh I don't want you to be right - but you are right. Beside the fact that even if you have a ton of users - what are you going to do to monetize them? No seriously what are you going to do? You sell them down the river with ads or spam them you are done for - you will have backlash 2.0 that will make FB Beacon look like an email outage.
Facebook is growing up and your take that big players with some serious back ends to back into FB will be the next wave is right on the money. Tricky tricks are done - now the next step is to leverage the social graph with apps that matter.

This has obvious downsides, but there are some upsides too. For example, these changes will be an economic stimulant for the Facebook economy. Expect prices of ads to go up as inventory decreases and demand increases. This is good news to those developers who can capture and retain an audience.
