This article talks about how facebook is extremely addicting. In the article, it states that “14.8 percent of Facebook users admit to all-day loafing.” This is a percentage out of 500, so that is a really high number. The fact that people can spend their whole day on facebook is scary. It is a way to stalk a person, but sometimes people can go too far. A person should never know what a person is doing every second of every day. Not only is facebook taking up students time, it is also taking up a lot of adults time. There are a lot of people out there who cannot stay away from facebook. It is affecting the workforce greatly. The article states that “Employment law firm Peninsula recently estimated that 233 million hours are lost every month in the UK alone as a result of employees using social networking sites” Social networking is changing our society greatly.
