Help Im a Facebookaholic

Omg, social networking is taking over the world! Facebook was founded by a small group of students at Harvard University and launched in 2004. It rapidly grew in popularity and now an incredible 500 million people from every corner of the globe are registered users. And Facebook is only the beginning—there’s Bebo, MySpace, Twitter… Social networking has changed the way we flirt, fall in love, get dumped, take revenge, make and break friends, gossip and chat. It’s little wonder that people are spending so long glued to their computers and smartphones. In this enlightening and entertaining read, Tammy Cohen examines the social networking phenomenon. She reveals some amazing and bizarre facts—including the number of people who update their status on the toilet!—and examines just why social networking has become so popular. It includes hilarious updates, embarrassing stories… as well as some cautionary tales about the dangers of meeting people online. So give your mouse a break and discover a book you’re guaranteed to "like". --Cover
