"Facebook, why I hate it"

While reading this article I couldn't help but relate to almost everything the author spoke of. I laughed and thought to myself , " I do that too" many ocassions throughout the reading. Facebook is such an influential social tool in our modern world. It allows people to be constantly interconnected with one another and provides a perfect place for people to meet and interact with eachother without actaully having to speak face to face. Facebook is great, for these reasons and more but at the same time Facebook can become way too involved with your life and actually take away from your real life interaction with people, rather than your cyber one. I can relate to the author of the articl in saying that you become so wrapped up in the constant stimuli of friend requests, comments and picture posts that you find yourself checking your facebook every chance you get during the day. Starting off more as a hobby and ending up as an obsession. Don't get me wrong I love facebook , it is great; but I most definitly spend way too much time on the site rather than spending time on other more constructive things I could be doing such as schoolwork.
