The third one you mentioned about Facebook being a waste of life is true. But for some people, they Facebook while on a paid job, so it's more of a way to pass the time without being bored. A friend of mine is a nanny and she gets paid to watch a three year old during the daytime while the parents are at work and she Facebooks and plays games while the child sleeps.

It is a waste to time but also a great way to connect with others, so I am not so sure that I would call that a waste of time. Then really anything we do would be a waste of time.
