2.6 million minutes spent on Facebook each day - we are wasting our lives!

There can be little doubt that there is much to do in the UK. From long walks in the countryside to visiting museums and galleries, watching local or top-flight sport and so on, there is so much more to do than change our Facebook status from ‘Nick is bored’ to ‘Nick is worried about whether or not he has clean socks!’

Yes, this is true, there is more to life, that is why we only spend 2.6 million minutes a day on facebook collectively and not 100% of our time. Going place costs money, socialising costs money, but not on facebook. Instead of paying for a cup of coffee to catch up with your friends all you have to do is scroll through their statuses and see who is up to what. It is a free way of keeping in touch with old friends. In fact, it enables us to have more time to do other things in life as we can quickly keep in contact with friends rather than going to see them all individually.  
 
Last point, I happen to think it is fun and rewarding to sum up your life in one sentence. It gets people to really think, most people will not write something mundane. Such out of the box thinking and creativity should be encouraged.
