Hello everyone,

Firstly, I would like to express my opinion that social networking is one of the major platforms that helps people connect and express their thoughts and ideas for the betterment of society, individual growth, and improvement in one ideology. However, as each coin has two faces, the impact of social networking is also not an exception.

As it provides the chances for one's improvement, it is also responsible for one's downfall due to reasons like addiction to social networking, giving importance to your social profile like "what the society will think of me rather than what am I?" i.e. giving importance to other's opinion rather self's opinion.

To conclude I can say the impact of social networking purely resides in one's choice of how to use it.

Hello, everyone.

This topic is like we cannot say it's right or wrong because on one side social networking helps us to grow, and on the other side, it can make trouble in our privacy.

I am going to explain this with an example: if you are the person who wants to share the valuable things that you learn throughout the process or start your own startup, then this is one of the main platforms that you are going to use to make your direct or indirect contribution to society as a person. It's in your hand what things you can do or see, so that's important.

On the other hand, about the cons, firstly, any online platform we use needs to be reliable, and having good ethics and trustworthy platforms helps to have more support and good security, which is important.

Hello everyone,

I believe that social networking sites have both positive and negative impacts on us.

If used for learning, gaining knowledge, or even earning money, these platforms can be really helpful. Sometimes, when we need quick information and can't ask someone directly, social networking sites can provide the answers instantly, which is very convenient.

However, on the negative side, many people use these sites only for entertainment. While that’s okay to some extent, they often don’t realise how much time they're wasting. In some cases, these platforms are also misused for spreading false information or cyberbullying.

So, in my opinion, the impact depends on how we use social networking sites — they can be a tool for growth or a distraction.

Good morning all of you,

According to me, there is both positive and negative impact of social media. There are many platforms on social media that can be used for learning, earning, etc. Because of this we can easily access information about all things, we can also stay in touch with friends, families, or relatives.
This is a positive impact.

But everything has two sides one positive & the second negative. So, it has also some negative impacts. Peoples are addicted to social media which badly affect on their life, I.e. there is a communication gap between people, many cyber threats, health issues, depression, & many more.
So Here, I am concluded that the use of social media is fully dependent on us then it is good or bad according to use.

Hello everyone, as we know, we are here for the group discussion topic of the "social networking sites ". According to my perspective, it is important to know what the actual pros and cons of social networking sites.

There are lot of cons as well as pros.

The pros of social networking sites are that they are independent to use, as well as they give facility to us to share our thoughts or the latest news via blogs and important articles. We are sharing to get the reaction from the people suffering over the internet so it is one of the points. And the cons is, it depends on us how we can use these sites. Many people watch bad things, scrolling reels on the sites that lead to moving them towards the wrong direction, that's an impact to their lives.

Hello everyone, I would to like to share my thoughts on this topic.

Like a coin, social media have 2 sides. On the positive side, it helps us to connect with people worldwide and provide facilities to communicate across different regions also build relationships and stay updated on global events.

However, on the flip side, social media has negative impacts. Many users are under 18, unfortunately, social media algorithms are not always efficient in filtering content based on age. It can be harmful to their mental and emotional well-being. Sometimes most youths spend their precious time using social media.

So, Undoubtedly social media helps to connect people also raises concerns about safety, privacy, and quality of content which is being shared.

According to me, networking sites have both positive and negative impacts, depending on the way we choose to use them and I would like to discuss the pros of networking sites first.


* It connects with people around the globe.
* Networking sites are useful for business promotion and new-age marketing.
* It helps us develop and explore the work and keeps us up-to-date.

And when it comes to negative impacts

* Social networking sites kill time for those addicted to them.
* And it is easy for scammers to manipulate people towards cybercrimes.
* Social networks have no particular policies, everyone has their own rights, and they express and impose their comments on others, which affects their mental health and commitments in life.

In response to the today's topic " impact of social networking sites".

I would like to begin by saying that social networking sites create a very large impact by connecting people all over the world.

Now, people could be friends with anyone and share their views with everyone regarding any topic that they want. Social networking sites help companies to promote their products to a specific type of people very efficiently, which helps the companies to get their customers very easily.

Also, I would like to add that if the social networking sites are used well by people, they really can help people to learn new skills from individuals, boost the confidence by having conversations with random people and improve the sales of the organisations too.

Hello Everyone. !

Thank you for giving me a chance to initiate on impact of social networking.

Nowadays students are wasting time on social media every student was scrolling and wasting their time, That is why social media is one side is bad and another side is good because some students improve their knowledge on social media.

For example, YouTube is helpful for everyone to learn something and to face any problems after watching some content on that problem it will solve easily ourself in the youtube.

For example, LinkedIn is useful for many students because in a platform to communicate with every professional student, To improve your knowledge and to find a suitable job for us, So, social media is helpful only who want to grow a career.
