Impact of Social Networking Sites

Actually intension behind the building of social media is not bad, the way we are using it is bad. Social media is a very good platform for advertising bussiness related things. Here we can promote so many issues, we can get to know what is happening in day to day life. But some people using it in a bad way so it's not a mistake of social media.

Hello everyone. I am glad to start the discussion. The Topic given to us is 'Impact of Social Networking Sites ' is really an Interesting topic.

From my point of view, social networking sites like fb, whatsap, twitter, insta are connecting people around the globe. Since people are really busy now a days because of the hectic schedules and they don't get time to talk to their loved ones, friends and relatives who lives far away from them, Social networking is really helping connecting to people. But there are some cons also, People are getting addicted to social networking sites, even living in the same home they don't even communicate/interact properly with their family members, skips the daily meals that they used to have together. Not only the teenagers but even their parents are getting more addicted. Also some people are using social networking sites recklessly and posts grossly offensive or menacing information hurting religious sentiments. There were so many people who were arrested for sharing offensive info on Twitter, Fb, etc. Now the govt of India has restricted the type of content anybody shares on social sites and Its a crime under the contentious section 66 A IT Act to post such kind of information. Thus now people are becoming more aware.

Though We had a good discussion but could not reach the consensus. There are also cons for using social networking sites but we cannot forget the pros basically we need to be aware while using these sites to protect ourselves from the adverse effects. Thank you.

Hello Everyone.

There is a lot of knowledge and information is available on social media. It depends upon us how we can take benefit of that knowledge and information. We learn many things from social media.

It totally depends upon us in which way we use it. If we use it in the right way it becomes pros for us. Otherwise, it is cons for us.

As we all know that social media is playing a vital role in society today. Social media has equal positive & negative impacts, here the positive impact is acquiring knowledge from it & the negative impact is getting addicted to bad things.

For this we can't blame the social networking websites, it's only our mistake & it's only our fault. Without making analysis we can't achieve anything great. Likewise, just make a question for yourselves "How you are using it?", "What you are acquiring from it?", &how much time you are spending on it?".

Social media is not only a tool for personal development, but it is also a tool for personal & social destruction. It is very essential to educate the students about the negative impacts of social media because they were getting deviated from their goals & aspiration because of the over usage of social networking websites.

Not only the students but also social media is wasting productive time for employees & staff. As you know the over usage of anything impacts badly even over the consumption of food makes an individual ill & unhealthy. Similarly too much exercise. Likewise over usage of social media will impact not only to an individual but also to their family, country & nation.

These days parents are not spending much time with their children because they were very busily engaged with their professional lives that's why the students are getting diverted to social media in which they think it contains joy & fun. They were not knowing when to stop & where to stop.

Instead of learning yoga & meditation the students are habituated to posting selfies, comments, likes & shares.

It is very difficult to sign up from social media if we are addicted to it.

Hi everyone, I would like to share my views on social networking sites before discussing that we must accept that any work that we do have both good and bad, even social networking sites have advantages and disadvantages. As we know that we addict quickly to bad things rather than good things it can be affected so much. Nowadays teenagers are most addicted to cell phones and wasting their useful time on useless things. At some point we can be beneficial at some reasons like make our relationships strong, to improve our skills, to develop ourself by learning useful things.

At last, I want to conclude that good things are so hard at this time but it must be helpful in future always take positive things and walk on the right path thank you.

Social media is good for us. We all know the power of social media. It is a big source of communication and skill development. We get more update like sports education and news through social media. We found what happened all over the world. We connect the people who live in other country. The main source of social media is YouTube. We can share our thoughts and know the thoughts of others. We joined the study group and share their questions and answers too. We know the addition of everything gone to the wrong way. So use social media in proper way is good for us.

Thanks.

Hi guys!

What I think about this discussion is that it is true that social media have both advantages and disadvantages. However, some people are addicted to it and can't really control their use because of sticky technologies that make you come back to social media platforms every time you leave it. It can have a huge impact on mental health and well-being.

What do you think about it?

Technology has always given an advantage to us. If we can operate it in a useful manner, then we call it a positive impact towards mankind and if not, then negative impact.

Trough this social networking site. We can talk with other people through text/audio/video chat which clearly shows that it's a package of communication.

Also. We can get the latest update of anything (sports, education, music). It's a way through which, the communication has been strong as compared to old days.

That's why Nowadays People are addicted towards it.

Thank you.

Good morning friends.

Firstly thanks for expressing my views on social media.

The modern age is the age of technology, there are so many technical skills in this world, social media one of them. Social media is very important to us. Nowadays by the social media we connect our friends and relatives and we can get any information anywhere there are two phases of coins it is same in social media, in conclusion, we can say that if social media is used carefully it is boon for us and if used it carelessly it is a bane for us.

Thanks.

Hello Everyone!

In my opinion, social media has become a part of our life. It made a great impact on our lives. We can easily connect with people no matter how far they are from us. In fact, it has many demerits like scams and addictions. It is highly affecting the lives of teenagers. They are addicted to many social media platforms. Also stopped playing games because they were stuck in playing video games. This affects both their physical and mental health.

But social media also has many merits. It made our life easy. Anyone can get access to many free courses and can study at any time. Many social media platforms provide various skills and also job opportunities. It also made our money transactions easier and secure.

Social media has brought the world into our hands. So, I believe that the impact that social media platforms leave on us only depends on ourselves. If we use them for our growth they leave us a good impact, or else we may get scammed or addicted, which leads to depression ruins our life, and also leads to death.
