facebook can be addictive, but i dont think its bad. i amor facebook for the fact that i can keep in contact with all my friends, make new friends, and rekindle old friendships. sure tu get spam. but tu get spam everywhere, and sure sometimes viruses get spread around on facebook, but that happens everywhere on the internet. tu just have to be careful what tu click on. and as long as your careful about who to add as a friend, and with all their new privacy settings im sure you'll be fine.
