Ever wonder what it is about Facebook that makes you wake up in the middle of the night, and wonder, "did I harvest my crops?", or "I need to finish up something on CityVille." I haven't reached that point yet, but I definitely have found myself glued to my computer screen for hours at a time when I used to play several Facebook games. I have managed to cut my games down to one or two now, but for about a year, I found myself addicted to group sites. I started a couple on my own, got interested in similar groups, and lo and behold, I ended up with almost 50 group sites, many which I never even went into for over a month! I ended up dropping out of the majority of those groups, keeping only those I was actively involved with, or that I started myself.
It is easy to get into the different games and group sites on Facebook, but more difficult to quit. Sometimes a person needs to take a vacation break from Facebook altogether to reflect on the importance of using it, and if there is no importance, to find something else more valuable to your time.....perhaps family, work, or school. That is the point I have reached - study time vs. Facebook. Which is more important to me?
Just a thought.
