To speak on the impact of social networking media which has two faces one is positive.

The other is negative they are: speaking on the positive side, it has brought immense usage in networking such as for jobs, for keeping our view of point in society, business hirings, we can seek information immediately not wasting time, varieties of ideas and creativeness comes to picture.

We also have a negative side, the children are getting addicted to YouTube shorts and reels, which impacts their eyes, creative thinking, wasting time, becoming more stubborn, etc.

Social networking sites have profoundly transformed communication, offering both significant benefits and notable challenges.

On the positive side, these platforms facilitate staying connected with friends and family across distances, and they provide valuable opportunities for professional networking and career advancement through platforms like LinkedIn.

Additionally, they serve as vital sources of information and educational content, helping users stay informed and learn new skills.
However, there are important negative impacts to consider as well. Privacy concerns are prevalent, with risks related to data breaches and misuse of personal information. Mental health effects are another issue, as social media can contribute to anxiety, depression, and issues with self-esteem due to comparison with others.

Furthermore, the spread of misinformation and fake news on these platforms poses significant challenges for users trying to discern reliable information. Balancing social media use is crucial; strategies for maintaining a healthy online life can help mitigate these negative effects.

Looking ahead, emerging trends in social networking technology may further shape these dynamics, making it essential to use these platforms responsibly and thoughtfully.

Hello everyone, my name is kajal Our topic of discussion is the impact of social networking sites, even though we cannot imagine a life without social media now, but we have to agree with the fact that it has its pros as well as cons.

I will talk about the pros first, social networking sites played a crucial role during the COVID-19 pandemic, for quick information sharing like information about virus, safety protocols and announcements by the government, facebook, and Instagram helped people with emotional and mental support by social connections, these networks were used as a tool for online education also. Not only in a pandemic, in general, many people do not have easy access of eduction they have YouTube and other online platforms for learning, but women who are not allowed to work outside can also do work from home, and people who have different skills and want to explore new skills, are getting a better opportunity through social media. There are regions, facing natural disasters we can rise fund for them also, for cancer patients we can rise fund. NGOs and the government are using social media for awareness campaigns. Now I will like to draw the attention towards the negative aspects of the social media, for mainly students it is becoming a site of distraction by different kind of stuff and secondly everyday we hear news about online scam about money, information and other things. There is always a fear of misinformation, that causes major problems in daily life. By and large, we can work on the negative things of social media and equip it with more new technologies.

Hello Everyone My name is Akash Jain and the topic is given to us is "impact of social networking sites" which is an interesting topic. As we know social networking sites have both cons and pros.

Good evening everyone. Myself Shenbagavalli and I would like to share my opinion about this topic.

As everyone uses social networking sites for their day-to-day update and their lifestyle updation, social networking sites are popular and it is used by most people in the world. Social networking sites have both pros and cons.

Firstly, let me go with the pros. Social networking sites can be used for many useful things and it can be very useful for the younger generation. In such a way finding their jobs and to upskill their skill.

For example let me explain with a LinkedIn app which is the adult behavioural version of Instagram. This social networking site can be used for finding jobs uploading their new project or current ideas or their victory. So that the recruiter can easily identify the candidate.

However social networking sites have many pros for the younger generation and the old generation and also have more cons such as cyberbullying, stress and anxiety. For example in apps like Instagram, some of the users are cyberbullied for their posts. Using social networking sites beyond the limit will lead to stress and a lack of confidence and concentration.

Hello all, this is Sanjay Kumar.

My thoughts about the impact on social media were that most people were using various kinds of applications like Instagram, FB and many others. There are lots of good things in social media, like news gathering and helping other anonymous people. Still, some people use the application badly, like scamming other people's com.

Thank you.

Good evening everyone.

I am Sumit Kumar Singh, As we know everything has pros and cons in the same way social networking sites help to gather information and share knowledge among people. Most useful apps like LinkedIn and GitHub provide platforms for people to show their victories, skills and achievements. Due to this recruiter can easily choose the right person for the job and work. But some people also misuse it by passing bad comments on other posts or abusing comments.

Good morning all.

Social media is based on how people are using it. There are two probabilities one is users can learn skills and make effective and earn knowledge making it more money.

Another one is they are addicted to social media and wasting their precious time. This is my opinion of social media.
