RE: I Share, Therefore I Am: How Social Media Aims To Connect Us But Actually Makes Us Lonely

Yes, that's so true. I have many friends on Facebook that I barely know or only meet once in my life. Although many people say "happy birthday" to me on my birthday, they only do so because there is a reminder on the top right corner. If I hid them, then only a few friends will say "happy birthday" to me and with five fingers I can count them all.

Good point, yes I actually thought about that as well.
I almost feel like the people who congratulate on facebook nowadays are not your real friends, since they would call you or text you directly.
