What you share an item of news, link, image, video, or something else on Facebook, it is more than just a one way communication. And more than a two way communication. It is reminiscent of a chat room that way, but a more static, asynchronous type of conversation. Because when I share something, other people are going to comment on it. At least that is part of the hope. And these comments will lead to other comments, and a sharing that expands to the friends of your friends on Facebook.
