I've heard this sentiment from many people. I probably depends on how one uses Facebook. For me, I have a busy career, grad school at night, kids, and I barely get time to go to the gym. Sadly, my extended family gets left behind, we don't speak as much as we'd wish. Months go by and photos aren't shared. Being able to post to a limited audience and have them subscribe to these photos has lead to a much closer bond amongst our extended family. Same with childhood friends I love dearly but dont have time to keep up with.
