Facebook Fail
I still can’t believe how much time people can waste on Facebook, Twitter and many other social sites but now things are getting scary for our future generations.
I was wasting some time myself on the website Mashable where they just did a survey with teenagers and asked them how they would cope if Facebook just disappeared and was no more.
Believe it or not 18% of these kids said they would just stop communicating with people. I have run into a few teenagers that are already there. Hard to get their heads off the ipod or away from texting, heaven forbid we actually talk to each other.
18% of the kids who responded to the survey said they would take a vow of silence, sort of like I did when I was that age and Dad said who wants to cut the lawn? These kids wont write, use a landline or talk face to face; I guess hand signals and a head nod are out of the question.
I'm thinking we aren’t going to turn out a great crop of sales people over the next 20 years with this being the case.
A company called AWeber communications surveyed a thousand high school kids for this and were shocked by the findings as was I. If forced to survive by communicating 14% said they would talk face to face and 6% would use the good old fashioned landline. In the next five to ten years its going to be interesting watching this experiment upon graduation.
I guess the best thing you can do is make your backyard look like Farmville so they will be engaged!
And guys its official women are lazier than men 34% of women worldwide are inactive which means they do less than 30 minutes of moderate activity fie days a week, 28% of men are inactive, higher numbers in the U.S. than in Canada, that’s it for me back to couch.
