Social Networking–A Mixed Bag of Tricks
I received so many public and private comments from readers about my last post on Internet usage (see “The Current Digital Divide”–Instant Gratification Anyone?), that I started to think some more about how social networks have transformed our lives. People (yours truly included) are spending more and more time on the computer. I set a timer so I don’t spend all day in one never-ending time-suck glued to the computer either web-surfing or social networking. For discipline’s sake, I look at Facebook only once every other day or so.
I do agree with social network...
