Good Morning Everyone. I am Amrita.
The topic given to us is the impact of social networking sites.
First of all, a network or a web is a cluster of all information's including all the bad and good ones, and network sites are one of them. It is like a mirror to our modern society where many people spend their time on social sites. If we positively use this, then it will be very helpful, like many people become YouTubers, vloggers and earn handsome money but if we look its opposite side, which is devastating. Some children get trapped in online games and fake investing sites, and some lose their lives. Spending much time on social sites is also an addiction which leads to unproductivity and depression.
Yes, social sites is just like a clay, if we build it in a good way, then it will show its goodness otherwise no use of this sites is the only solution.
Thank You.

Hi everyone, I take this opportunity to start the GD.
According to me, we should not just differentiate this issue as black and white. There is always a grey side of any issue.
Social Networking Sites have benefited us for a long period,
It has made it easy for us to connect with different individuals on a large scale, giving us new opportunities in the field of business, and marketing.
It helps young professionals to get in touch with recruiters when they need jobs.
Apart from its advantages, there are many loopholes in it. Social Networking Sites give cheap dopamine and make someone addicted to it. These sites are easy playing areas for scammers and they target younger audiences, they expose pictures which are not for younger audiences.
At the end, it depends on an individual how he or she wants to use it and be much more careful regarding the use of it.

Hello everyone,
Social media has seamlessly integrated into our daily lives.
For many, it starts with a morning check of their feeds to catch up on the latest happenings. While this habit keeps us informed and connected, the key lies in how we utilize these platforms.
For instance, LinkedIn, Naukri, Apna, and Google News offer valuable knowledge, and even Instagram can be a source of insightful content if used mindfully. Ultimately, it’s up to the user to decide whether they want to harness these tools for educational enrichment or entertainment.
Platforms like YouTube, for example, provide opportunities for learning through educational channels, making knowledge accessible to those with a good internet connection. At the same time, they offer entertainment options like movies. It’s all about choosing how to make the most of the resources available to us.

Hello, my name is Ashmit Kashyap.
I'm expressing my views on the impact of social media. In my opinion, everything has two sides. First, I want to tell about pros: social media is a boon for students in this pandemic. Many children could not reach school but by social media, anyone can learn anything. Everyone can be connected to their relatives and friends even they were miles away. Creators show their talent through social media.
Now I tell about cons: People get easily addicted, students can be distracted, scams and fraud can happen, people use social media for hours and that reduces physical activity and can damage mental health, after use longer period it can strain your eyes. I must say one thing that it always depends on us how to use something properly. If we are used for a limited time and without being distracted then it's a boon for us.
Thanks.

Advantages:
We can communicate with the friend and relative which are living abroad for various purposes. Also, various social networking makes our life easier like online shopping.
Ticket booking, etc. Youtube is the best way for a student to extract knowledge and help in their studies. Social networking websites are part of our life and connect people with similar interests.

Many children play online video games telling their parents as they are studying.
In searching a good content the children need to waste their precious time.
Many of the spam websites are there which may lead to enter viruses in our pc mobile, laptop, etc. Spending more time on it produces diseases like mental illness, eye-sight problems, etc.

In my opinion, social media has both positive and negative impacts on people.
if I talk about negative impact,it will be excessive use of social media, watching web series, and excessively playing games; these all things take us in depression, stress, and anxiety. After some time, it becomes difficult to get out of it.
If I talk about the positive impact of the internet, one click can access any type of information. Before the Internet, it was very difficult to access information. However, the internet has also given employment to people through blogs, podcasts, promotions, and social media, where they can express their talents.
The internet is not impacting only the edtech industry; we all know that the education industry is now becoming fastest fastest-growing industry, but beyond that, it helps in generating employment through showcasing their talent.

Hello everyone,
As we know that every coin has two phase, so we talk about the good impact of social networking sites it helps us to know about what is happening in our country and also in the world. Before this, nobodies have a good knowledge and information now all the people are aware of the whatever happens.
As we know with the help of newspaper we are able to get the information and also the radio and now just social media.
Most of the people are away from the home just like for study ingredients and job and also our are Soldiers they are blessed to do face to face communication with their family.
And much more good impacts too.
The bad impact is that everyone is busy with the mobile they use the mobile till late at night and they are not like to talk with their parents and family member and because of that crime is also increasing.

Hello everyone.
So, talking about social media which is becoming an important part of our life. As we know social media has many benefits if we use it correctly. We can start advertising our business, also we can search for jobs. If anything happens wrong in society people will support it by posting it on social media and giving their opinion against that.
With the positive points if people use it in the wrong way then social media can become a negative thing for them. Such as people are wasting their time on Facebook and Instagram by scrolling reels. Also, they will share their personal information so it can become dangerous for them. There is no guarantee of security so many people will face abuse and fraud problems.
Lastly, I want to say that social media should be controlled by people, not people should be controlled by social media.

Social networking sites have become an integral part of our day-to-day life. This is because of the amount of information that we get through social media. Even if we are not doing anything we are scrolling Facebook, Twitter, and Instagram and by scrolling only we get to know about many a thing that is happening nowadays. Not only current affairs but also knowledge regarding the latest technologies and inventions. But everything has two sides and so do social networking sites.
Nowadays, nudity and sexual content have become very easily accessible which is destroying young minds. Also, unknowingly we spend a lot of time on irrelevant content present on Instagram and fb which is only wasting our time and energy.
So, we should have the ability to distinguish between the contents that are available on SN sites and spend our time wisely.
