>If I want that stuff, I don't get it using a computer; I talk to people.

The idea that Young(TM) people who post a lot of stuff on each others facebook profiles and the like don't talk to each other is a myth.

They post the link, then next time they see the person in real life they have a conversation about the link. Having both given the link their full attention independently. When you're talking to someone IRL there is unlikely to be a suitable computer to hand, especially if the link points to some music.
