"Facebook wasn't bad, until my mother send me a friend request..."
IMO facebook is more of an addiction for many people. I am constantly seeing people that cannot seem to go a day without posting to their facebook/twitter pages. Facebook has in a sense de-socialized these people, as they now favor Virtual friends, goods, likes over human interaction, and appear physically agitated if they can't "get their fix."
Imagine if all the time spent playing Farmville, was instead spent learning how to actually grow plants in a community garden. Facebook had potential to change the world for the better, but it doesn't appear to be their agenda.
