Why do you think social networking sites are so popular? What are the main appeal factors?
I like being able to keep all my friends updated at the same time with little effort. Likewise, it's so much more convenient for me to do a quick sweep through my Facebook updates and know what my friends are up to. That's a major appeal plus for me.
I know what you're thinking: you can do that with an e-mail. Well, you can't attach a whole photo album in one e-mail, or share ready-to-view video. It's awesome being able to do all of that in one stop.
And then there are those added bonuses for the rest us. It may seem like a waste of time to a lot of people, but I don't know what I'd do without my groups and fan pages. How else can I keep updated on the next Rock Band game and what late-night show Green Day will be appearing on all in one quick page view?
Those games on the other hand.... I don't have a farm and the next person who sends me a sheep is done for!
