I was just thinking about it. People always talk about how they waste X amount of hours a day on facebook and twitter. There are so many studies about how social media causes people to waste time and kids play outside less. And this leads to obesity and blah blah blah.
But what if it is the exact opposite?! What if twitter and facebook are actually causing people to want to do more with their lives? If you sleep all day that does not make for very interesting tweets or facebook statuses. But if you are getting new jobs, going skydiving and living life, then your tweets & statuses become more interesting. So it is a definite possibility that facebook and twitter are enhancing lives!~ I’m not addicted to Facebook i just have an addiction to Facebook.
