I've heard facebook compared to crack. Although I have no first hand experience with the latter, I'm guessing that analogy is not too far off.
Our experiment, our goal, is to go 3 days without facebook. Don't even sign in. 36 hours. No Im'ing , no status updates, no wall posts.
Before we embark on this difficult journey, you first must comment on/answer the following questions:
1. Would you consider facebook members part of a group or subculture? What are the differences between groups and subcultures if any?
2. Does Facebook facilitate a Gesellshaft or Gemeinshaft society? Explain
3. What values does facebook disseminate? In other words, in what ways does Facebook socialize its members?
4. What role does facebook play in your social network?
5. Lastly, what will be most difficult about giving up facebook for 3 days?
