Facebook addicts will find that everyday tasks and chores no longer get done because all the time that was previously used to do those tasks is now spent on Facebook. In an article for Newsweek, Sarah Kliff voiced her opinion on facebook when she said, “What is it with all this time we've spent, thinking about ourselves and creating well-planned lists of our interests? Facebook is much worse than e-mail, cell phones, instant messaging and the other devices that keep me constantly connected. It nurses every self-indulgent urge I could possibly have” (Kliff par. 3). She continued in the article by saying that she hated facebook due to the amount of time that she wastes on the site (Kliff par. 3). This feeling is mutual for many users all over the world. Facebook simply wastes time that should be used for much more important tasks. Many people with jobs involving a computer could also risk losing their job if the desire to log on to facebook became too powerful to ignore. Facebook addiction poses a risk for students as well. A study done on Taiwanese middle school students revealed that facebook usage was a clear deterrent to academic success (Hanprathet par.1). With many assignments now being online, students can log on to Facebook with the slightest effort, which can be a huge barrier in completing assignments on time. School is hard enough as it is, and students cannot afford to have any more distractions. All in all, if time used on facebook was utilized in a more productive manner, students and employees would be more successful.
