Social networks, interesting or waste of time?
 

I think the idea is obvious from the title.
Do you think spending time on Facebook, Twitter and other social networks is a waste of time or interesting and why?

waste of time...

xcoder opening a thread?? Something must be wrong!!

And generally it's a waste of time unless you know how to make use of it and turn it into something useful. But generally just a waste of time :p

Everything in life is a waste of time, until we die :p
Some people enjoy playing pool in their free time, others enjoy driving, and some enjoy spending their free time on a computer

El zeyed 5ay l na2es.

and btw, this forum is a form of a social network, where you can interact with people over a web space. For those who consider it a waste of time, why are you spending time here?

I think following other peoples updates on FB/Twitter is stupid and a waste of time. It's neither a discussion nor a conversation, unlike on a forum.

I think this post by Tawa sums it up:

well it depends :)

It's not a waste of time when you are placing adds on marketplace...
It's not a waste of time when you are getting updates regarding ur sis, bro, cousins khsouse if you're outside leb.
It's not a waste of time when you are checking for jobs...

It's a waste of time when you are always checking who got married, who posted new photos...

im using it less day by day, sometimes i forget to open facebook except when a costumers calls for a report for his/her facebook ads online campaign

w tol2it 7arim :p

No one can deny that in a way or another it's a waste of time. I personally would rather do something useful than searching facebook but once u start it's hard to stop. u get used to it.
