I'd like to propose that everyone with a facebook account refrain from using the site for at least three days. We could then blog about the effects of facebook abstinence, negative or positive. Maybe you'll find that you spend your time more productively, focus more in school, spend more time outdoors, hang out with your friends in the real world, etc. Or you might go through horrible cold-turkey withdrawals, not know what to do with yourself, go a little crazy, maybe end up in a methadone clinic. You might not even be able to make it one day. If you do sign in and use the site, let it be known on your blog. No cheating allowed.
For those who don't have a facebook account, create one and use it everyday for at least three days. Again, blog about any positive or negative effects from using facebook daily. You might find long lost friends or become horribly addicted to social networking and Farmville. Maybe you won't like it at all.

I like this. It sounds like a cruel homework assignment.
ReplyDeleteYeah. I was going to make it a week, but I thought the class might tar and feather me...
