Facebook, fabulous or not??

I must be one of the few people who does not have a Facebook account! Partly because I haven't got around to it, and partly because I would be unlikely to put anything much up on there as it's a bit 'personal' for me, even though I know you only share what you want.

I spend a lot of time trying to control the amount of time my children spend on Facebook - needless to say they love it - and just can't imagine having the time to keep it up to date. I can see that it is a great way for them to connect to friends and find out what is going on, but am also a bit saddened by the fact that they very rarely pick up the phone and have 'real' conversations with their friends. It's becoming a bit of a lost art.

I can see that, when I'm not so busy,it could be a great way for me to re-connect with old friends and I might just do that!!

Facebook connects people from all over the world!

    I agree that facebook is no substitute for human interaction. When you consider the amount of communication that occurs via body language alone, you have to ask, how much real communication is actually happening?

    Two things -

    1. facebook caters for the bully/thug mentallity

    2. facebook creates split personalities

    I'm a member, not a fan.
