I still see it as a welcome addition to my life.

My experience is very close to yours and I've found it's enhanced my life very much. I think your analogy of another type of friendship is very accurate. Great post.

I will go and have a read of that article.For me, Twitter is a worse offender in that way.<br />I think Facebook could make you lazy, but for me its an addition to my friendships, not an "instead of".<br />I'm off to read the Guardian !!<br />xxxsarah at secret housewifehttp://secretworldofahousewife.blogspot.com/noreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-4646749189327464337.post-15232204308622749982011-11-22T12:00:26.621+00:002011-11-22T12:00:26.621+00:00Helps if I attach the link!

I hate Facebook - it started as a stolen idea from a horrible piece of work and is now a place full of huge show offs determined to inform the World of their every movement. <br /><br />A timely article was written in the Guardian about it, some of the comments sum up exactly how I feel about it. I wish it had never been invented as I don't think it's enhanced many lives at all & has changed the way we see privacy forever. I appreciate what you personally get from it though... but I think it's a lazy way to communicate.Urban Cynichttps://www.blogger.com/profile/07968949122197550072noreply@blogger.com
