Where do you get your Facebook updates?

This Ad appeared during the superbowl. This is just pushing home the fact of the idea that people need social media to interact. Instead of a letter or a phone call, the guy in the clip relies on Facebook for his information on how the date went.




To expand on this idea of relationships revolving around facebook and social media is mind boggling. Me personally, I have a hard time understanding that people can form relastionships without personal one on one interaction. But because of social media people can now. For instance, Skype, facebook chat,  and other online medias allow people to connect one on one online. cutting out the ideas of going on real live dates and instead going on online skype dates.

All this to say is that things are changing and people have two choices, to go with the changing times or just ignore what is going on and stay in the electronic "stone age".
