My issue is that the way people manages "catching up" is quite dehumanizing. I see my friends once a week in person and we exchange news and I think that brings meaningful interaction.

I guess you could say the approach does not work because I have far away family that I see once a year at the most. Well, the reason I see them only once a year is because I don't want to see them. I certainly would not want them visiting my Facebook page if I had one.
