today i read two articles about facebook and the impact on the american culture. they both talk about how people are becoming closer to each other and sometimes finding out more about others than they actually knew when they talked in person. While i personally go on facebook and so do my brothers, my family/ close knit nigerian family culture would rather talk then do things on the internet. No one in my close family on my mothers side has a facebook account, mainly because they would rather hear the voice of a person than have to read messages and "poke" each other, its just not there nature. One reson that i think that my mom's side of the family is so close, is because they make time for each other, instead of trying to avoid each other, and they actually talk it out. Honestley i think that everyone would be happier if they spent more time with their families.
