Connected or Disconnected?

I think we are more connected then disconnected by using things such as social networking sites. By using Facebook, Twitter etc. it allows society to communicate far easier then without them existing. I think that by using Facebook, it allows me to connect to people I would normally not be able to contact. On the other hand, there are people who use Facebook for other reasons that may interfere with their social life. If Fb takes up the majority of their free time as suppose to actually being with the people you are "creeping" or messaging on the site, it could create a world where you are actually disconnected. Since the advancement in social networking, it has allowed people to have more of a say in society by creating a group and having followers. Thus, having more opportunity to express yourself and for people it makes me feel more connected.
