Perhaps social media is a place that we should not encourage people to spend inordinate amounts of time in. Perhaps the idea of combining all the world's people into a single centralized location to communicate with one another, should carry with it the very explicit notion that such a place would be chaotic, high-energy, and risky --- just like going to the casino for the night.
