IMO, Git is a great source control system, just as good as mercurial. Github, however, is popular because it's a very different angle from sourceforge or google code; instead of organizing around collaborative 'projects', it's entirely organized around users -- hence their catchphrase "social coding". It's more like a social network. Of course, the skeptic may argue something similar to what you said: that it's hard to find the 'center' of projects among the vast landscape of personal code pastebins. :-) Just my personal opinion, of course.
