As a Facebook user I thourouly enjoyed this article. It pointed out many questions that I ask myself all the time about my use of Facebook and its’ applications. There is a fine line to walk though that is not included in this article, and that is the issue of just basic networking. I first joined in order to keep in touch with people that lived down in Los Angeles, but soon found myself absorbed into it. Facebook is akin to a double-edged sword and it is very easy to fall on the wrong side of it, but how else could I keep in contact with people far away? The phone bill would be off the charts.
Yet committing “facebook suicide” would definitely be a welcome relief, because I strongly agree, it starts to feel “egotistical” and it is always on your mind. Honestly, how much do you really need to know about someone? It is just one big race of trying to impress someone, and it can definitely add stress to your life and eat up a good chunk of your time. Either way, it is up to each individual person to distribute their time evenly so as to reap the benefits, but not get sucked in. Well, I would write more, but I have to go update my status!
