Well what I do is set a time limit to be on like go on for a hour a day and break up the times.(: or just don't go on it but keep it and delete some people that cause the drama.(: Hope I helped!

There is so much more life in reading a book, a real book, or taking a walk or visiting someone. For a social network site, we really aren't being any more social. But less social.

I actually know more and more people closing their FB accounts these days. Either because of bad experiences, or they find no reason for it anymore.

The smart FB users will create a FAN based page and push their business on it, while they can.

Facebook is addictive because we are able to chat endlessly and somewhat look through others' lives through their photos, etc., feeding our natural human curiosity. That's why most people end up spending so much time on Facebook, because there's just SO many people and so many different things to do. That being said:

Try doing other things, go outside, call a friend... you'll probably end up answering the question yourself.
