I found it on internet. I think you will find it helpful since it is written by Jug Suraiya
After many years, Bunny and i are planning a trip to the city we grew up in and which we still refer to as Calcutta. I’m looking forward to meeting all our old friends whom we haven’t seen in ages, i said.
I don’t know what you mean, i see them every day, said Bunny. See them every day? Has she been making secret trips to Cal when i wasn’t looking? Has she developed the knack some yogis are said to have of disassembling their molecular structures at Point A and reassembling them at Point B, having teletransported them there faster than the speed of light?
Neither of these conjectures is correct. Bunny has been keeping in touch with all our friends, in Calcutta and elsewhere, on the social media site called Facebook, a totally alien territory to a digitally-challenged dinosaur like me.
Indeed, thanks to Facebook, Bunny – along with millions of others like her all over the world – has made a lot of friends she’s never actually met, and will possibly never actually meet, all their interactions being conducted in cyberspace.
In several ways, Facebook friends can be friendlier friends than real-world friends. Real-world friendships can have a number of in-built disadvantages, geographic distance, and the expense and effort involved in bridging it, being only one of them.
Separation in space apart, there is also the problem of divergence in time. For instance, at any given time when you’re free to socialise, the friend you would like to socialise with might be neck-deep in work, or otherwise occupied and doesn’t want to be intruded upon.
On Facebook, such constraints of time and space don’t count. You can touch base with pals wherever you are, or they are, and whenever you’re free to look at their FB posts, and whenever they’re free to look at yours.
And the best part is that if you fall apart with a friend – Mark Zuckerberg forbid – you can mutually unfriend each other and not lose face. You’ll only lose Facebook
