You mean friends that have been through life and had experiences you haven't, right? I believe it was the one that had a child that had had the illness that first suggested that illness.
- jrockway 15y agoI mean, friends looking through a page of your random thoughts, and then typing in their thoughts about that thought. It's not something people really did before Facebook; sure, you could call people "just to chat", but this is on a much greater scale. This article is a look at the good that can come from this. (I say "bored friends" because people don't read Facebook updates when they are engaged in highly-stimulating mental activities. It's a downtime thing.)
- pbhjpbhj 15y agoI don't think you're quite being fair. I've certainly used FB to check on someone who was ill without having to call them directly; not out of boredom but out of concern. Also simply not being involved in complex mental activity doesn't make one bored.
