Hello Everyone!

In my opinion, the impact of social networking sites in our life is too much indeed. In this technology era, we sleep on social networking sites. Now social sites have occupied each and every sector and field of our day to day proceedings. Start from health to entertainment, sport to finance. Even media is not left out from social networking sites.

Nowadays our life is incomplete without social media. Whatever we human being want to show and express, whether its anger, sorrow, joy, excitement or happiness everything should be on social sites.

Hello I'm Shishir Majumdar from Valsad.

I am happy to speak about such a good topics. According to me social media is now part of everyone life just like radio and newspaper and tv. Still to say about merits and demerits of social media I have mentioned it in points as follows.

Merits:
1. Entertainment and refreshment which is necessary for good mental health
2. Teaches many new skills by experts and help to learn many new and innovative ideas available.
3. Open ups platforms for marketing and advertisements and also attract relevant target audience and buyers.
4. Staying updated and aware of the things happening globally about each and every news in few minutes.
5. Increases knowledge about unknown and unexplored content, blogs and information.
6. Increases connection with friends, customers, clients, family and colleagues etc.
7. Through social media everyone can exchange their thoughts, ideas, views and opinions.

As every coin has two faces, So social media too has many demerits too.

Demerits:

1. Reduction in the uses of books and dictionaries and increase in the dependence on gadgets, apps and Google app for learning.
2. Fake IDs and pages creates irrelevant stuff and annoying messages and even influences people to the wrong directions.
3. Increase in cyber crimes and unethical activities like hacking.
4. Lost of connection, emotional affection and relationships with family members.
5. Spoils much time in just sharing photos and video merely for likes.
6. Emerging tremendous level of anxiety, depression addiction, insomnia and lack of concentration.
7. Reduction in outdoor activities, reducing physical growth, health issues and children to adults addicted to social media.
8. Mass reduction in productive time for studies for any office work.
9. Increase in the issues like headache, eyes pain and neck pain.
10. Circulations of fake news and rumours misleading the people.

Good Evening people!

I feel everything can affect us only as much as we let it!

Anything in excess is bad. Our generation somewhere fails to understand that Social Networking Sites are just a mere part of our life and not something that we should be building a life around! It's for a time out of stress and to keep in touch with the world. And not for constantly updating everything on it!

Hello Everyone,

Thank you for giving this opportunity to discusses social networking sites.

My opinion on social sites is very useful nowadays because many people are knowing what happens in the country and there are posting in social sites like Facebook, Instagram, Twitter and WhatsApp.

But some people are addicted to social sites, by posting their photos and unlikely stuff, people should also think about their families who are so far by communication and there are forgetting their families by busy in social sites. Social sites are useful in sometimes but not useful in every time. Some people use social sites for their career and for job purpose and for popular by taking some videos and posting on sites.

Hello everyone.

As we all know that everything has it's good and evil side. So does social networking sites too.

It totally depends on the way we want to use these sites as they were basically created to connect people. Using these platforms people can raise their voice against a lot of things. As we all know the #metoo campaign was also started at these sites only which was a great step towards women empowerment where the women can freely speak about the harassment they have been gone through.

And these sites can be used to share some important information related to jobs, current affairs.

But nowadays the use of these sites has increased in spreading hatred towards any religion, community. Fake news created over these platforms is being used to demonise people reputation.

We all know the famous saying that, over usage of anything is harmful.

Social network is one of the powerful media through which information about anything can be obtained. There are other media also, but in today\'s world social network is most used. Informations more than that appear in other media like news papers, radio, tv etc. , are obtained through social media.

Moreover, within past four weeks, Kerala faced very bad consequences because of heavy rain, land slides, floods. In that time most of the people got saved because of one of the most popular social media. If the social media had not been there, many people of Kerala would be washed out. In cases like this, social media is very very useful.

On the other hand, many people have got addicted towards the social networking sites for no reason. They just like to sit in front of those sites and do something. For that kind of people the impact is very bad. They will develop health issues, they will lose interest in other things like studying, playing, reading books etc. .

I conclude that social networking sites are best source of general awareness, general knowledge when usage is optimum.

Thank you.

Social media is used to make a connection with friends, customers, client, family, colleagues etc. Social media is a powerful platform in our society and the world through social we can communicate all around the world. We can get all news of the world in a few minutes. By social media, we can chat with a new friend and old friend. We can get the latest updates of games and videos. But a coin has to poses head and tail as same social media has to probability sometimes some bad effect of social media in the world like as we get the fake news this news make the pandemic situation in our country. Now a few times ago when our country facing a pandemic situation of covid -19 then much fake news was coming through the social media. And they make over the pandemic situation. Some other bad effects of social media like as many people are addicted of social media like as FB WhatsApp I think it only depends on us how we use it in positive or negative. Thanks.

Hello friends, As everybody knows social sites connect with our old friends and families too. It acts as a mediator. Using a social site is useful and harmful also.

Advantages:

1. Earlier there was no phone it was very difficult to know the other person status, Nowadays each person has a phone and social sites like Facebook, WhatsApp, Instagram where we can easily talk with our friends and family.

2. We also get some latest news on social sites like what is happening around the world.

3. The example we can say like BLUEWHALE game which is a danger game was revealed on social sites like not to download this game.

Disadvantages:

1. Instead of studying, nowadays small children are using social sites, simply they signup into Facebook, Instagram which is a bad thing.

2. Whenever we are searching something advertises comes like porn type, that time mind will divert which has to be banned.

It also make health problems using mobile phones for long time. Sometimes social networking is not good for our health. As well as technology developments are updated in our hand using the social networking sites. So this is good one as well as bad one.

As much as you use it is as bad. So use for your need.

Thank You.
