What is the purpose of facebook, Twitter etc?

Antics, I agree with the last part of what you said. I have a facebook account. I joined it to get in touch with old friends. The sad thing is. After you befriend old friends on facebook. They never keep in touch. Or, like you said. They turn it into this self-centered page of theirs; along with their vain pictures. I keep wondering when will these sites become obsolete. To the point, where people get tired of it. And go back to going outside and getting a life.

Have you ever watched this documentary show called The Facebook Obsession? It is a true story. It talks about the downfalls of facebook. And how people have lost their jobs over facebook. I watched that show once. It is really shocking how we as society have gotten hooked on that in bad ways.
