Facebook


Facebook has become a social power house over the last few years, going from just college students to anyone being able to use it. A recent release from Facebook itself shows these facts:

  • Over 150,000 registrants daily
  • Over 55 million total users
  • Over half of the total users are outside college
  • Average visitor stays 20 minutes
  • Most growth is among people over age 25
  • 85% of college students registered
These numbers are outrageous and if you think about it you will see how big of a waste of time it actually is. In one of my own recent polls, I calculated the average college student gets on Facebook 4-5 times a day. That is a waste of over an hour to just look at comments. In college it is very important that you remain efficent because you do not have time to throw around. Is this a good waste of your time??
