Influence of Online Social Networks on our Youth

In my opinion, social media cannot be defined as either good or bad.

How it turns out will be up to the person using social media be it good or bad.

Because if a person uses social media for bad things then it is bad for that person.

But if it used for something good then it is good for that person.

So it all depends on the person using social media.

Social media has equal number of pros and cons. However I think that the effect of the cons are more dominating the pros. Let me first point out the good effects:

1. It can be used to create and maintain relationships.

2. It reduces distance between the communication.

3. It can be used for advertising products on a commercial level.

4. It can be used to organise events.

5. Finally, It is becoming one of the fastest way to propagate news among youngsters since 70% to 80% of the netizens are youths.

Now, lets take a look at the darker side:

1. Although social media can be used to build up relationships, the internet is an infinite ocean where anyone with good experience can leak out personal and private information. Your security is always at risk.

2. Even though social media was introduced to make communication more convenient, people today have reached a point where they've literally stopped communication the conventional way. Also, there has been tremendous rise in the usage of internet slang and people are slowly losing their knowledge on the English language.

3. We see a lot of products advertised on the internet. However, statistics suggest that for most of these companies that advertise, the income they get through online trajectory is way too less compared to other means. So online advertisements are not much of an effect.

4. The social media has almost replaced TVs as the primary source of entertainment. And major share goes to the memes created and posted in the social media. These memes depict in a way the current scenarios or may be something related to daily happenings and they depict them in a sarcastic way. When such things are conveyed in a sarcastic I tone, it surely affects our level of understanding of the issue.

5. This is the most negative impact of social medias on youth. We all are addicted. And it is increasingly becoming serious. We stay online most of the times literally doing nothing. It greatly affects our productivity.

According to me social networking is one of the form of communication and which should be used in right way.

According to me, it is true that social media has many advantages and disadvantages. But we use it carefully and on our demand. Its limited use is good for us.

Hi friends,

This is Hari Kishore.

Social media is good for communication and learn about something. It is used to improve our skills and gives us more results like what is what? It is very useful to everyone. Social media has two things,

Advantage and Disadvantage these two things are is up to you.

Social networks is good for those who are good as well as bad for bad.

Social media has positive as well as negative effects. But negative effects are more than that of positive effects.

- Social media leads to addiction. Spending countless hours on social sites can divert the focus & attention from a particular task. It lowers the motivational level of the people especially teens & students.

- Kids can be greatly affected by these social networking sites if they are allowed to use them. The reason is that people share photos on social media contains violence which can damage the behaviour of kids & teenagers & teenagers involve themselves in crime related activities.

Hello to Everyone.

I am Prakash Samal from Bangalore. Our topic is quite interesting for all because of we all familiar with it. Now, coming to the point, as we know that It has some good and also carries the bad thing or we were experiencing badly. If I talk about the good thing then perhaps we all knew the working in Facebook or any social networking sites for eg sharing videos, moments, publishing notice etc. But if you do the things beyond your limits then that makes you crime like as posting the nasty pic etc. Lastly, I conclude that we must use it but the priority and time must take care by yourself, not by the social networking.

Hello I'm Jagadeesh, yeah, of course, our topic is good it is very useful now-a-days that is social media, it's like a mediator between the customer and marketing sellers. It is also useful for publishing the products, promotions advertisements etc. The free of cost we can publish our products. The main disadvantage is that is the if we want to access the internet we have pay 296 rupees for 1GB data. If we promote a product on social media it can be reached to billion people with the cheap cost that data price.

The social media will support online banking it is very useful for the present situation which is demonetization. It is processed to get any type of product in online shopping.

The topic is very interesting. I want to say that actually social media is cream in between bad or good impact and also impact fully depend upon user how use thank you.
