So some users of Facebook — the current king of the social networking craze — are actually trying to reclaim their lives by agreeing to cancel their accounts either simultaneously or individually.
What is interesting about Joseph Recomendes’s blog entry is that people are asking if those with Facebook accounts are losing the ability to distinguish themselves. In this Christian Science Monitor article published Oct. 10, Christine Rosen writes:
“This technology, with its constant demands to collect and manage our friends and to relentlessly market ourselves, in some ways undermine our ability to achieve what it so boldly promises to give us – a surer sense of who we are and where we belong?”
Maybe I’ll cancel my Facebook account as well.
