(UNDATED) Most days you can find college sophomore Adan Farrah on his laptop checking in with his classmates, looking at photos and updating his personal page on Facebook.
For the 19-year-old and many of his friends, the social networking site is something close to an obsession.
“I’m on there a total of three hours a day … four hours on weekends,” said Farrah, a native of Monroe, N.J., and now a student at Kutztown University in Pennsylvania.
But on Ash Wednesday, Farrah decided to quit Facebook cold turkey. No more status updates. No more commenting on photos posted by classmates. No more connecting with high school friends.
