Well, yeah, Facebook is just a slightly improved BBS and a browser is just a slightly improved ANSI terminal.
The BBS thing was interesting. You would meet new people, and new opinions. New thoughts. On Facebook, the best you can hope for is new ads. But Facebook is may be some weird, perverted "evolution" of the BBS concept.
I wrote my own BBS (CrCs) in C, and had it running on a 8086 based PC with QNX and 4 modems.
