I really hope this analysis is not of smartlyedu's target market... because if it is, they're going down the wrong track. Facebook doesn't actually add any extra overload. Most students perfectly understand that facebook is just another tool for communication. Nobody really expects other students to check their facebook at all times and most students are tech savvy enough to realize that they can just ignore facebook. Most college students tend to ignore the feed and "like" spam that happens anyways and will only comment if they see something that catches their eye. Its not a stressing ritual at all.<p>All the hype around facebook makes people who aren't intimately aware of the social scene think that the entire social scene is on facebook. Its a great and useful tool, but the social scene really isn't on facebook. Facebook only augments it. Thus, if someone is really feeling social overload from facebook. Removing their facebook account really isn't going to do much--your friends are only a campus away. The pressure will find you. Regulating the feed won't change anything.
