From my perespective, social media networking may be boon and bane for the youngsters and adults, but its totattly depends on us, how they use them, because through social media, one can raise their voice against crime, such as corruption, rape, or global warming, as we all know the kolkatta doctor rape case, this case came into the existance through the social media only.

Secondly, for enhancing our skills and building our careers in networking, digital marketing, and content creation, social media plays a very crucial role. Everybody knows ankit byanpuria, he motivated a lot of people through their reels of consistent fitness workouts as well as, and this became a golden chance for him as he came into the highlights, even the Indian Prime Minister also met him. Social media makes his career.

It's dependent on our mindset, our perspective, our thinking, and how we utilise social media.

Good morning everyone,

As you all mentioned, social media has both positive and negative sides. But instead of focusing on social media directly, I would like to talk about our brain.

As we know, the human brain is the most powerful weapon. If you learn to control it, it can help you achieve anything. But if you don’t, it can manipulate you into doing things you never planned.

When it comes to social media, if you train your brain to use it wisely, you can gain a lot of knowledge and benefits. But if you keep feeding it only entertainment, your brain will start demanding just that. Even if you decide to use it productively, your brain can still push you back toward distractions.

So, I would like to conclude by saying: it is not social media that is good or bad. It is we, the users, who decide how it affects us. Social media becomes good or bad depending on how we use it.

Thank you.

Hi friends, myself Durga. I shall share something about Social Media.

Now, we are in different places, but now we can communicate via the internet and social media. So, if we use social media properly it gives us good worth.

Otherwise, it leads to being mistakes.

Learning is very important. Nowadays, we can learn a lot of things through social media. At the same time, most people are addicted to this social media. It causes a lack of thinking capacity. Whatever we don't, we don't think what will be the solution. The first thing we do is google it.

Through this social media, we have a lot of benefits like communicating with other people and learn new things and get updates on time. But we have cons also. Less interaction with family members and relatives. Depression, anxiety, fake id, etc. If we take the positive side of social media we get benefits otherwise it will give loss to us.

Hello all.

Bhoomika here.

So in my point of view, social media is also about the person, how people use those apps as much as how they forget everything when they are using it, nowadays all the students and all the jobs persons have used all the things but the main point is this is necessary to do the same right, and they have both prospectives.

If positive - they will be also used in a marketing strategy, finding a job, searching the new things for communication skills, learning skills also some brands and shopholders use some type of apps for marketing so yes it will be useful, and students also using for gd in the school. In the time of corona, video calling classes and working from home are used so it's ok.

And in the negative part some people are spreading the negative personality, some people are trolling, abusing our details so both sides are there over here.

Thank you.

Social Media has changed the way our brain works. Since the advent of the internet itself, social communication channels have broken down to lead to a new type of evil called as social media. It is a cruel form of usage of our brains. It makes us addicted, and engage in bad habits like exposing ourselves to a blue screen in the morning. It rids us of actuality related to engaging with people in our vicinity since our eyes are glued to a screen. It is capturing us in a cage and dissolving our realities. What's more, the usage of AI to capture people's attention is a gimmick which is harmful more than beneficial.

I seek to shut social media completely in my life and in the lives of people around me. I hope the world is rid of it completely before the next generation is addicted to a form of communication which is intoxicating humankind with its irrational and unneeded contraptions.

Hello everyone.

My Name is Ganasai Kammara.

Social media has become a part of our life. This generation is very much aware of social media. Technology is improving day by day. A lot of applications are made and developed using social media like YouTube, LinkedIn, Coursera, Udemy, etc. These applications are very useful to learn, earn money, and gain knowledge.

If some people have talent in dancing, teaching, cooking, vlogging, and other useful activities they can become a successful Youtuber. LinkedIn, and Coursera these types of applications are very useful for learning courses and earning certificates to get jobs easily.

The cons of social networking sites are that they are not secured anytime, hackers will be attacked, they spend more time, addicted to entertainment, and not a secure environment for children especially.

These are my thoughts about social networking sites.

Hi everyone,

I would like to share my thoughts about social media platforms, Nowadays it plays a major role in our life, yeah you know, it acts as a platform where can we share our emotions, knowledge and communication with other people. It also acts as a stress buzzer, because whenever we can meet our problems, we spent our time on social media and watch some funny videos, funny memes like that then we temporary forgot the problem and feel happy. It is also used to get a job from different companies and act as a business platform. Every coin have two sides, so it also has some demerits there are we spend a lot of time in social media for unimportant things, it cause eye diseases, stress, laziness, headache like that etc. We can't expect in all the information to be true on social media platforms and also we can't expect our information are secured.

That's all. Thank you.

Hi everyone,

Today, I am going to talk about the impact of social networking sites. Their impact is like a coin, having both positive and negative sides.

Firstly, the positive impacts:

By using social networking sites, we can connect with people and access information from any part of the world. For example, during times of disaster, we can find information about safety measures and safe locations through social networking sites.

Now, coming to the negative aspects:

These platforms can be a breeding ground for false information and manipulation. For example, during recent elections, a single negative comment could incite public violence and change the tide of public opinion.

To conclude: The impact of social networking sites depends on how we use them. If we use them properly by differentiating false information from the truth, they can be a great boost to our lives.

Hello Everyone,

In my point of view, on using social networking sites has both positive and negative impacts, but it depends on my own that how I use it, which I mean to say that whether I use it for our work, studies, etc. Or for our entertainment, trolling someone, etc.

So, as I move towards the positive impact, it helps us in studies, and also enhances our creativity by providing some new ideas. As I think that it also saves our time during preparation for something, like if we don't get any concept, then it's usual that we are going to search for it in books, but we get it in a few seconds on YouTube. If we look at the past, many people didn't get information on time because of which them lost their exams, jobs, admissions, etc. While nowadays this cannot happen as people interact with each other through these sites, such as LinkedIn, Twitter, they get to know it.

Social networks have profoundly reshaped how we communicate, access information, and form connections, bringing both benefits and challenges. They enable instant global communication, fostering relationships and supporting professional networking. Social networks raise awareness on important issues and can influence positive behaviors, yet they also spread misinformation quickly, creating “echo chambers” that reinforce biases and contribute to social division. While these platforms offer communities and support, especially for those facing challenges, they can also impact mental health, fueling stress, anxiety, and comparisons.

For businesses, social networks provide marketing opportunities and customer insights but raise privacy and data security concerns. Balancing these impacts is crucial for maximizing the benefits of social networks while managing their downsides.
