Does anyone else feel that these sites are such a waste of time?
You post what is happening all throughout your day and you mindlessly refresh the page to see new updates on peoples life that have nothing to do with you.
What I have also noticed is that people talk to others and say things they wouldn't say IRL. Or talk to people they generally don't even give em' the light of day.
In addition to that, you can stalk and learn so much about people that you wouldn't even know about them if you talk with them on a daily basis. I was reading an article about this thought. They were talking about two people in an elevator, and one guy knew the other persons brothers name etc, without even knowing him personally, just through social networking sites.
The only reason I can see why someone should use these kind of sites is to keep in contact with people.
Just a couple of thoughts on the subject.
