Facebook Factoids

Researchers have come up with a 6 question questionnaire that they say can determine whether someone is clinically addicted to Facebook. People who try and fail to limit their Facebook usage, who turn to the social network to deal with negative moods or emotions, or who become irritable when denied access to the site could all be at risk of real psychological addiction, researchers say. In other polling news, it was found that of all Facebook users, 80% have yet to buy a product or use a service as a result of either ads or comments on the site. Also, about a third of users polled said they spend less time on Facebook than they did six months ago, compared with 20% who said they now spend more time on the site.
