I'm going to have to disagree. While is spend less time socializing on the internet now than when I was younger, that is not because I have less time on the internet, but for lack of opportunities. Hell, I spend more of my days on the internet now, whether I'm studying or working. And while the internet can never (for me) become a substitute for socializing in the real world, I don't really find it more efficient than on the internet. If you simply read someone's posts, sure, but from conversing (on e.g. IRC)?
