True, true. Though I find it has more to do with having less time. I spent a lot of time on message boards during actual downtime at work, and it's been years since I've had a job that wasn't go-go-go all the time. Much easier to "keep up" on FB and Instagram...but it's not really quality time spent conversing and really meeting new people.
