This article is all about the growing interest our world has in social networking websites such as myspace, and facebook. It discusses the meaning of being "friends" online and what it truly means. It makes you think of the differences their are between being friends online and actually being friends in real life and what the true meaning of friendship has become overtime. A part of this article which I found very interesting is where they talk about how Christianity views friendships. It says that they were against intense personal bonds between friends as they believed it would take attention off of God and perhaps lead people to forget. I find this interesting as it is apparent that in today's world friendships have become more and more important and many kids and others are becoming to become less religious.
I personally feel facebook is just a distraction for me and I really don't relate what I do on it to real life. I found this article to be a bit exaggerated and extreme yet can definitely see where their points of views were coming from.
