Is Facebook destroying friendships?
In class we talked about the argument of whether or not facebook is destroying the friendships we have. I do not think it is destroying friendships I think it is helping to keep some intact. Facebook allows us to keep in touch with friends that have moved away that in the past would have lost touch and stopped being friends. For example a lot of friends people have in high school go away to college and make new friends and although you would still maybe keep in touch with a few close friends using phone and other things, a lot of the people you were close with would drift apart and be to busy in there new life to think about you. With facebook it is easy to see people online that you hadnt talked to in a while and send them an instant message asking them how they have been. Without facebook a lot of the people I still keep in touch with would go live their lives and i might never see or hear from them again.

I definitely agrees. Without facebook there would be some people who I would've never really talked to again unless I didn't have them as a friend on facebook. People get wrapped up in their new lives in college and they might forget about you somewhat, unintentionaly ofcourse. I would much rather have them as a friend on facebook and just talk to them occassionally rather then never.
