Well, it’s less messy. Or just delays the inevitable?

I enjoyed Jonathan Franzen’s insight into the phenomenon of “Liking,” particularly as it applies to Facebook.

Even as we (and me included) wholeheartedly enjoy social networking and enthusiastically “like” our friends’ photos, tastes in music, articles, etcetera, at some deeper level we truly do understand this is no substitute for real friendship.

In all honesty, my Facebook “friends” now include probably more people that I’ve never met than those who I actually have. And of those – I’m like most people, in that I only consider a few true “friends.”

I want to read Franzen’s “Freedom,” but haven’t yet. Anyone have an opinion? I hear it’s wonderful.
