The impact of social media.

It was most interesting topic which was trending in current era, it makes very usefull to people for providing information, communication and sharing data so on, thoughts we can post publically or personally, but in another way it was made unsafe to people because easily stealing sensitive data of people or an organisation. It leads to financial loss from cyber criminal.

And it's effects causes to the health problem, mental pressure reducing people conversation etc.

Hello everyone,

Social networking sites have both pros and cons depending upon how we all use them. If we use it for good things it will be beneficial to us but if we misuse it and spend much time on it, it will be harmful to us.

Nowadays, we all are more dependent on social networking sites.

Before students used to keep a lot of books which they used to study but nowadays they all study these things from social sites.

So in my opinion, social networking sites are both useful and harmful but it all depends on how we all use them.

Hello everyone.

As social media has many cons but on the other side, we think about many of our ancestors and many famous personalities for eg; I would think about Ramanujan famous mathematician, just imagine this guy without the internet discovered so many mathematical theories and algorithms that are used in new technologies, if had internet access what would have been our world today.

So in my perspective, the way we use social networking sites depends on whether will it end up in pros or cons.

Hi, Social media has both pros and cons. It depends on individuals how use and compared to benefits there are more cons like social media addiction. Mostly youth spend more time on social media like Instagram and WhatsApp and watching random videos on YouTube. Of course, it depends on the individual but social media distracts students from studying.

Before the internet people used to spend more time with family and friends and it built strong relationships with members people used to play outdoor games on weekends which is good for their health and coming to now people on phones it reduced face-to-face communication. Spending long hours in social media causes a lack of sleep and it stops brain functioning.

Hello everyone,

However, the impact of social media depends on our perception and its use. It is taken into two sides:

Positive side and a Negative side.

On the positive side, it connects different people irrespective of distance and time.

On the negative side, it lets people spend more of their time with phones than their family and friends.

Hi everyone.

In my point of view, social networking has two phases and it has both advantages and disadvantages.

It depends on how our generation takes one main advantage is that it helps people connect but it may also make people addicted to it.

Hello everyone, So we will be discussing about Impact of social networking sites.

According to me, Social networks is the a very great platforms, say it be for education, business purposes, socializing purposes and many more. It's a platform which comes with its advantages and disadvantages.

These social networking sites- say WhatsApp, help us to interact with people in a very convenient way, we can share files like- images, videos, and documents, and be connected with people. It also has voice call and video call options, which brings people who are thousands of kilometers away closer by one call. We have Facebook and Instagram which is quite famous social sites, here people post their photos and share their moments with their friends, and it's a very good site to stay connected with people.

Aside from personal life, It's a nice place to start a career, if Linkedin, Naukri, Unstop and many more platform where people can showcase their achievements and job seeker can get the job. It's not only restricted to getting a job, but we find many people over there who help and guide people. YouTube is also one of the great examples of it. It's a platform that is not only restricted to educational videos but an entertainment-providing platform too. We have many apps like Instagram and Facebook, where people not only entertain but also share their opinions about everything. Many small-scale businesses use these platforms to launch their products, get customers, and easily contact the brand.

With all these advantages, we also do come across many disadvantages, such as social media addiction, where we observe many teens and young adults spend long hours mindlessly scrolling through reels and wasting time on YouTube watching some random videos. Also, social media trolling can be a huge hurdle most people face. While it may seem like a good idea to buy products online, most people do get scammed by getting cheap products.

I guess, overall we can say that the advantages and disadvantages of social network depends on how you perceive it, and how you choose to you it.

Social networking sites have revolutionized the way we communicate, connect, and engage in discussions. These platforms have become integral to our social fabric, influencing not only personal relationships but also how groups interact and deliberate on various topics. The ubiquity of social networking sites means that group discussions can now transcend geographical boundaries, allowing for a more diverse and inclusive exchange of ideas.

The impact of these platforms on group discussions is profound. They facilitate rapid information sharing and can amplify voices that might otherwise go unheard in traditional settings. However, this ease of communication also comes with challenges. The potential for misinformation to spread quickly, the echo chamber effect where only like-minded opinions are reinforced, and the sometimes toxic nature of online discourse are all areas of concern.

To understand the nuances of these impacts, a multi-pronged approach is necessary. A literature review can provide a theoretical framework, highlighting how social networking sites have been perceived and studied in academic circles. Data collection, through the analysis of engagement metrics and sentiment on these platforms, can offer empirical evidence of their effects on group discussions. Surveys and interviews can add a qualitative dimension, capturing the experiences and perceptions of users.

The analysis of this data can reveal patterns in how group discussions are initiated, sustained, and concluded on social networking sites. It can also shed light on the quality of these discussions, including aspects such as civility, depth of debate, and the potential for consensus-building or polarization.

Ultimately, the findings from such an analysis can inform recommendations for users, platform designers, and policymakers. These might include strategies for fostering constructive dialogue, mitigating the spread of misinformation, and enhancing the overall quality of group discussions on social networking sites. By understanding the impact of these platforms, we can harness their potential for positive social discourse while mitigating their drawbacks.
