Hi, everyone.

My name is Arati Patil. Today we will discuss about impact of social media networking.

In my point of view, there are two sides for impact on social media networking. First is the pros, and second is the cons.

In pros, we can say social media is useful for accessing and gaining knowledge about any topics regarding our course. It also useful for thinking a innovative ideas with the help of internet.

In cons, we can say social media networking is not good because of the cybercrime the hackers can hack our account and unauthorized users can acesss our account so it dangerous. Any user can send the msg to our friends, relatives of many more.

Hi everyone.

Social media has now become an important part of our daily lives. There's not a single day when we do not use our phones to check our social media handles.

According to me, there are many advantages of using social media. First and foremost is the vast amount of information that one can gather through these apps. Nowadays, everything that happening around the world reaches us within half an hour. Everyone is aware of everything and more.

Social media is also used to enhance our existing knowledge on a n number of topics. It is used for educational purposes as well.

With the growth of Social Media, several small businesses have flourished. Thus it supports small businesses giving them the chance to shine.

It helps people showcase their talents, thus giving them the recognition and support they deserve.

Anything that has advantages has several disadvantages as well.

A study has shown, that we check our phones about 250 times a day. Such use of social networking sites leads to addiction, and depression in extreme cases.

The younger generation is more focused on looking relevant and getting likes on social media. They tend to doubt themselves and often get depressed.

The concentration span has remarkably decreased in the past few years.

Some of the biggest cons are cybercrime, cyberbullying, and online harassment.

Thank you.

Hello Everyone,

In my opinion, anything done in excess leads to negative results. Similarly, social media is a very good tool to stay connected with our loved ones, friends and family. In the old days, there were very limited means to stay connected with friends we met in different cities. Also, we get so much information and day-to-day help using social media. It also provides a means to find your life partner which was not available in earlier days and options were very much limited.

If we talk about cons, then yes fraudulent activities have increased as it is easier to cheat someone online rather than in-person. Since all the information is stored online, people try to misuse it at times.

As a bottom line, I would like to say that if used carefully and under proper guidance social media is a boon otherwise it's a curse.

There is always pros and cons in every scenario.

Pros:

Suppose there is a huge following for a random person on social networking sites like Facebook and Instagram etc. What does it mean It is because for their talent and their skills. Many people get to know themselves and their hidden talents by using social networking platforms. Earning Money and enjoying the things while exploring. The best thing here is illiterate people can easily access applications and gain knowledge for better performance. People get connected by apps and make beautiful bonds and old friends will catch up and chat in online platforms. Promotions happening on social networks.

Cons:

* People are not interested in spending offline.
* Cybercrimes mostly happen through social networking sites like they are approaching through Instagram etc. And people are easily trapped in cyber things.
* Addicted to mobile.
* Spending most of the time on mobile by scrolling shorts.
* Going forward there are no relations just for likes and comments.
* Such comments sometimes hurt a lot.
* Fraud connections.
* Children also spend a lot of time on Applications.

Social media networking has both pros and cons. It depends upon the people how they use social media networking. It provides daily news knowledges and technological news. But sometime people ignore the pros of social media.

It enhances social networking connectivity, allowing individuals to stay in touch with friends, family, and colleagues regardless of geographical distances.

People can share information, updates, and life events with a broader audience.

It's a better platform for marketing to build brand awareness and engage with customers directly.

Businesses can receive instant feedback from customers, enabling them to improve products.

We can spread awareness through the rapid spread of information about social issues, etc.

Social networking is a very genuine thing, that, one gets to get innovative, the ideas born within, but, sharing them brings action, because, not everyone has everything in their life, one might have fuel, one might have iron to build a vehicle, one might have an idea of building the thing and one might have the necessity of it the most. This order of social networking can be used for being innovative and productive.

For me, social media networks is key to unlocking the doors of success.

This social media has the power of mass destruction. It's so much more addictive than opium. Regardless of having lots of cons, it has the power of making someone super star.

At this time, social media is the source of awareness.

Hi,

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

First of all, Social media has brought the whole world a little bit closer. We can connect with our friends, family, and even coworkers through social media. Secondly, we get information through social media and even information can be passed through social media sites. It has made our life even more simple. Through social media sites like Instagram, Facebook, and Twitter, we can share our thoughts. However, there is a disadvantage because of social media. Many people get cheated through social media sites. Even financial scams have taken place through social media Cybercrime, and cyberbullying also happen through social media sites. If social media is used with the right intention, it is a boon, otherwise it is a curse.

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.
