Quote:

Anyone who has ever spent time on a dating Web site like Match.com knows that the online profile often doesn’t match the person in real life.

So when University of Texas researchers began studying Facebook friends, they expected that users also would exaggerate accomplishments and offer an enhanced version of themselves. To their surprise, they discovered that Facebook profiles typically gave an accurate and realistic impression of the user’s real-life personality.

Good to know!!!!
