  • Is Your Time Investment in Facebook Worth It?

    The NY Times reports that some teenagers are coming to grips with how much time they're choosing to spend on Facebook.

    “We decided we spent way too much time obsessing over Facebook and it would be better if we took a break from it,” Halley said.

    By mutual agreement, the two friends now allow themselves to log on to Facebook on the first Saturday of every month — and only on that day.

    The two are among the many teenagers, especially girls, who are recognizing the huge distraction Facebook presents — the hours it consumes every day, to say nothing of the toll it takes during finals and college applications, according to parents, teachers and the students themselves.
