Is facebook and social networking making people superficial?

[caliVI]

Recently I've noticed that people have become very caught up in their image. Many post intimate photos and status updates of a personal nature. With the exception of a few close friends, I don't really want to know how much fun you had on your vacation in Europe, how cute your new baby is, or how big your wedding was. Stop trying to impress people and fix your privacy settings man.

Also, it seems word "friend" is cheapened at this point, or may not be an appropriate term for facebook to have adopted. Seriously, what's up with those people that have 1,000 friends? I've met thousands of people in my life, but I wouldn't consider most of them friends.
