yep, Facebook, Twitter and Video Games are what light bulbs used to be. You know the WE'RE ALL GONNA DIE because of light bulbs. Now for some its FB, Twitter, etc. oy vey!

Technology, including social media, serves a useful purpose. In reality, FreeRepublic is a social network. Go figure!

I am on FB and Twitter. Got my parents on FB and it wasn't long before my dad got connected with men he flew with in Vietnam. Best of all, a man who flew out of his based, in a different squadron but during the same time period, lives a few miles away. Finding him and meeting him added a lot to both heroes lives.

Yep, you really must stay away from the evil Facebook. /s

And that is what it is, a social function.

Comparing it to the light bulb is simply utter nonsense.

Hey you can use FB all you want, but don't delude yourself that it has real value, like the light bulb

It is mostly for people to talk about triva aspects about their lives.

And FB isn't at all like FR.
