Too much social networking linked to depression!
by bonnie basil on Feb 25, 2009 11:58 AM   Permalink | Hide replies

Social networkign is not a phenomenon associated with teenagers alone. It attracts people from all walks of life and I feel it genuinel helps in keeping old school mates and college and as well as friends that we gather in our day to day life. Atleast it is enabling us in helping not to forget these names which would have happened without these facility. But drawback I noticed is that there is influx of too much of networking sites and to be member of all these is time consuming and mental torture to keep following the updates on these sites.
So my advices would be to stick on to one site and spend time every week to update it and add new friends.

That's nice.
I agree with you. We really feel better when we are connected. But sometimes we may get carried away. I think the author is talking about those specific instances. We have to make sure that we use facebook and let the facebook not use us!
