Facebook has more than 900 million users as of April 2012. Crazy huh? I've decided i'm going to spend these next two weeks focusing on the negative aspects of Facebook, and the last 2 weeks about positive things about Facebook and how it's a wonderful example of an alternate universe. But first we're going negative here. Dark. Scary. EVIL! hahahaha! We are talking about....FACEBOOK ADDICTION! Now, don't freak out. It's totally normal to be addicted to Facebook and here are some ways you can know if you are according to thurs on Hub pages:
Symptoms of Facebook Addiction
Some symptoms of Facebook addiction are given below to help users in realizing whether they are really addicted to Facebook.
- Users and their siblings communicate through Facebook wall and messages, even if they stay in same house.
- Users check Facebook for updates and comments after every hour at their workstation or on their cell phone.
- Users wake up in the morning, and log onto their Facebook account first.
- Users’ Facebook wall is full of status updates, comments, and applications that they just used.
- Users give priority to Facebook over their commitments in professional and personal life.
- Users spend over an hour on Facebook at a stretch or in short episodes over regular intervals.
- Users can not stop thinking about Facebook updates and comments when they are offline.
- Users look forward to get home in the evening so that they can see what is happening in cyberspace. (on Facebook to be precise)
- Users can not go for a day without using Facebook, and even this thought makes them go into sort of depression.
- Users’ day ends with checking Facebook for that one last time bidding people 'good night' through their Facebook status update.
It's amazing how just one site can affect your entire life. Your life literally becomes all about Facebook, facebook stalking, facebook games, facebook chatting, etc. How does this alternate reality affect YOUR life?
