Impact of Social Networking Sites

Well, I believe everything has its pros and cons and so does social media. Social media is a very good platform to connect with people across the globe and gain as much knowledge as possible. It is the earning source for various individuals and businesses.

Talking about the cons, social media is impacting our lives in a negative way by affecting our mental and physical health. Youngsters and adults as well consider scrolling on media rather than utilizing that time in engaging in physical and mental activities which are beneficial.

I want to say that it also depends on the person who has access to these sites. As it is well said that you reap what you sow. And same applies to the usage of social media.

Hi everyone,

Thank you for giving me this opportunity.

Well, our day-to-day life is upon social networks. From morning to before going to sleep, we use many social sites. There is a lot of impact of social networking sites in our lives.

1. Wasting our time. We know that time is specious it never comes back. We use several apps for time passes instead of trying to use in a productive way. For example, instead of scrolling Tiktok, use Quora or Linkedin which helps to get knowledge.

2. Mainly kids are getting more habitat to this. So keep away from them. Try to watch some classes instead of games.

Finally what am saying is to use social networks in a productive way not in a destructive way.

Thank you.

My name is Nidhi Sahu. I am here to talk about the pros and cons of social media.

Social media is very important because it provides so many facilities and it's most important work people are connected with their own family and own friends and loved ones and their college provides so many connection.

people use social networks for information gathering, to know what is happening in the world. in another way, social networking is harmful in some cases. excess browsing of social media leads to time waste and addiction.

Some people are using this in the wrong way i.e.gathering people's information and using the information against them. if we use it wisely it is very useful and if not it is very harmful.

Good Morning everyone,

My name is Prakash Jivtode.

And today I would like to initiate a group discussion on the topic of the advantages and disadvantages of social media.

In my opinion, social media has its own advantages as well as disadvantages it depends upon how you handle social media.

The advantage of social media is that people can share their thoughts, showcase their creativity and show their talent in front of the world, some platform like linkdin is very useful for finding jobs and connecting with professors and communicating.

The Disadvantage is people waste their time scrolling social media the whole day, nowadays small children are using social media which is not good for their brain.

Our topic is "Impact of Social Networking Sites".

Social networks are built to increase our network, like connecting with new people for personal growth, and certainly to build our own personal brand to stand out in the competitive world.
95% of people use social media to post trending, doom scrolling and engagement activities like commenting, liking and messaging, but the remaining 5% people are building their own personal brand; those people are called influencers, they are getting opportunities directly.

For instance, on a Microsoft career site, they are asking for a LinkedIn profile or a Resume for a job application. Here, a social media site decides someone's career based on how they use it.

I think it has a huge impact on present generation both in the positive and negative way. It totally depends upon how it is being used by us. Some people are too much addictive towards social networking sites and they kill a lot of their time with these social media. Thats not at all a great thing happening with us.

Nowadays everyone busy with their lives, in this busy community the social media really relieves our stress with a proper usage. We may not talk to our friends daily, but still, we have been updated with their statuses because of social media. It also acts like a media by which we can really get to know a lot of things going around the world.

So, its totally with us, using or misusing!

Hi everyone, this is Shruthi.

I would like to add my view on social media.

Everything is bound to two things those are nothing but advantage and disadvantages. There is no such thing as only having advantages; life is good and disadvantages.

Nowadays, social media has become part of our life; we are all fully dependent on it, and we cannot survive without our mobile even for an hour.

But everything is in our hands, so we need to use it properly or else we need to know how to use it.

There are such things about social media where it is a major part of our lives.

So just need to use it properly, as we know from the beginning of the day to the end of the day, we use social media for any purpose.

Yes, the impact of social networking sites is something which is not to be ignored.

Social networking sites have changed the way we live and we should control ourselves in using them. I agree with the point that it has a lot of positive and negative aspects.

Let us first view the positive aspects-.

1) We can gain a lot of valuable information.
2) We can perform a lot of tasks like online payment, booking tickets, social interaction, etc.
3) Good source of entertainment.

Now let us view the negative aspects-.

1) Distraction from our duties and responsibilities.
2) Online fraud.
3) Cyberbullying.
So in my view, it is fully dependent on how we use these sites and ensure they do not harm anyone.

Hello Everyone,

Tejaswi here, and I'll be sharing my thoughts on the impact of social media.

Nowadays Social Media is being widely used from children to Our Senior citizens. Through social media people can connect with their friends and family globally, can make video calls, and Share some online moments with each other. In addition, it is a platform that allows users to make money, share their thoughts, do advertisement for their businesses and much more. Also Social media is beneficial in the field of Health & Fitness, as many people, doctors, health coach share the exercises, foods, calorie intake and other health related information through social media that being helpful for the people.

There is no doubt that social media and the internet both become a prime source of knowledge and connectivity by using this we can easily get current news all over the world and this is a very good quality that social media possess during the pandemic social media has become a boon for them who are not able to pay fees of schools and colleges but by social media, they can easily learn from YouTube and other education platforms I like most this good impact of social media another is social media has people connected but social media has two sides like a coin one is boon and other is a curse. The bad impact of social media is that social media reduce outdoor activities that cause vulnerable health.
