How much a role do you think Facebook has played in causing people to be a little too open about their lives?

I know some people are more open than others anyway, but since the creation of Facebook, I see people freely posting their phone numbers, talking about very personal matters, and generally posting a lot of shit that no one else cares about.

For example (from one person):
8 Am: Got the kids off to school
9 AM: Having more coffee
10 AM: Drank too much coffee, can’t stop peeing.
11 AM: Horny. Need to call hubby home for “nooner.”
12 PM: Eating lunch, hubby couldn’t make it
1 PM: Taking a bath
2 PM: I fucking hate men
3 PM: God, I love men
4 PM: My mom is so annoying
5 PM: Cooking dinner
6 PM: Eating dinner
7 PM: The kids are taking their baths
8 PM: Facebooking from the toilet, hahaha
9 PM: I love you, honey!
10 PM: Late night snack
11 PM: Facebooking from the toilet again. I think dinner gave me diarrhea.

Without Facebook (and similar sites), people would just be left to texting or phone calls, but I doubt they would call every single hour with an update. Is Facebook (and similar sites) the cause for this sort of behavior?
