I chose to write on "Does Facebook Replace Face Time or Enhance It?" It starts out with a story of how a girl named Jenny hasn't even spoken to the author in a good amount of time, but thanks to Facebook, has given the author presents and other things. In the article, the author makes it clear that Facebook can indeed be a good thing, especially for people who are very busy with kids or work. While I agree with the author that, yes, Facebook can be a good thing for people to connect better, I believe that the issue was simplified. It was simplified to down to a smaller group of people, normally single parents who were busy with their lives. If all the "inane and intamate details" that make up life aren't something you get on a regular basis without Facebook, then maybe you aren't really a part of their lives at all. I think getting to know someone and keeping them in your life means actively updating them. It's very convenient to update on Facebook, but requires virtually no effort, no pun intended.
