An Interesting Observation

My husband made an intersting observation the other day. He told me he had heard so much about Facebook bringing people from far away together. It gives old friends and family the chance to keep in touch and post pictures, as well as other forms of interacting.
The intersting part was that Facebook takes so much time. It is easy to get sucked into Facebook world and stay there for hours. By doing so, althogh you are interacting with those far away, you are not with those in the same room.
My goal is to try and stike a balance between these two worlds.

That is a good point.

I have found several people, including an old girlfriend, that it was delightful to hear from. But it is easy to get sucked in.

There are enough things for us to get sucked into, but it is nice to take a break from things in moderation I guess. I have found I spend less time on the social aspect of Facebook and more time on the games, like Maffia Wars. It is VERY easy to get sucked in there!
Thank you for your comment. I am sorry I took so long to reply... time got away from me. Yes, a lot of it was spend on Facebook, but I have also been busy with my job :-)
