Did you know that people are now spend more time online, on Facebook than on the other 9 top web brands?
The average of 4 hours 39 minutes! So that's like 4.5/24hours=18.75%of our daily time.
18.75% multiply 365 days (1 year)= 68.4 days we spend on facebook (more than 2 months every year!)
If you would live another 50 years, that means 18.75% multiply 50years = 9.37 years of our life on Facebook! Hahaaaa not a joke it is a time waster...unless you make profit from it :)!
Any cool opinion guys?

Wow, that's sure a lot of time to spend on facebook. I have facebook, but I only spend a minimal amount of time there. I do enjoy that farmtown game, but even there I don't spend more than about 15 minutes a day (it takes longer to load it up than to do the game for the day lol) I can't imagine spending 4 + hours there in a day.

Hello friends,
I created a facebook profile some months ago and thankfully I am not that addicted to it. I hardly spend half an hour on it per day. I was on orkut for a long time and there I spent a lot of time in my students life. I think it did cost me a few grades but then, it is all past now and I have learned form my mistakes.
Thanks for sharing.

hi pal, yup no problemo! I mean, I'm not against Facebook. It's indeed a great social media if you really know how to use it for your benefit right. However most of us tend to forget the time that passes so quickly, even on this Mylot.com for that matter.
We all do mistakes, the smart ones learn lessons from it :)

If it does not pay me, I do not go there. That is why I am on MyLot. I get a lot of social relationships and learn a lot here. I get paid a little and find other ways to earn. I have always felt Facebook and MySpace were time wasters.

yup i agree with you at some point. You do get lots of social relationship here because basically you're dealing very close discussion with each other, most of the time one to one. However if you are aware, you can connect yourself with a bigger network at the two websites and use the platform to make good money. i havent tried myself yet but working on it :).
try visit this post if you are interested to know more about it. it might help?

I just started recently in Facebook and I can say the site is really addictive. It's good to see many friends their but the games there are really addictive. Now I am thinking of things there that are good to me and I am now avoiding those addictive games there every time I visit the site.

Wow, that amazing fact. I know I'm not one of that person because i just got into facebook recently and I wonder what make it so special. I'm not so into social networking, who knows I might change my mind after seeing it, but I hope not. Thank you for the facts. Happy Mylotting

Eh, I dont go into Facebook anymore. At least not everyday. I am in there like, once a month? I find it a total waste of time to see people updating their Pet Society pictures and how much they have earn from their farm! It is better to spend that time wasted there here in myLot!
