Social media makes it easy to spend a little bit of time with a lot of people. It's easier for me to wish happy birthday to 100 friends on Facebook by typing 'HBD!' on their walls than to actually pick up the phone and have a half-hour in-depth conversation with a friend on his or her birthday. We've lowered the barrier to having shorter and less intimate interactions with people we barely
know.
