Hello friends,

In my opinion, social media has its pros and cons.

1) helps in marketing.
2) connecting people all around the world.
3) staring digital campaign.
4) earning money by showing their skills.
5) improving communication skill.

Cons:

1) wastage of time.
2) mental and physical illness.
3) making people lazy.

Let me put some light on "social media", social media is helpful. It depends on the people how they use.

Social media become a various platforms like fb, instagram, twitter etc. For connecting the people in different ways.

People say that social media is consuming the time of youth and it is waste and all but if we look bright side of the topic then yes, social media is connecting people into lives and joy every moment like posted a photo, video et.

Thanks.

It connecting but not everyone in the same way. Most of the time we use social media not only for connecting, we use for entertainment, fun, relaxation.

When we see social media as a fun place, we are losing control over it. There is not many guidelines to use it. Without any coordinates, we are diving into it. We usually not studied about social media and its consequence. Even we know about it, everyone not. Nowadays social media readily affect most young generation.

Social media connect people but on the other hand, it has so many traps which is not discussed. We usually see the filtered content on social media. We didn't know how much time it takes from us for small genuine information in social media.

In nowadays everybody has an account in it and anyone can be a content creator or something on social media. Yes, there is a possibility, but not for everyone. Trends never talk about your loss. It always praises the winner, after that new trends will come.

Nowadays social media is a platform of psychology. Most of them don't need to stick with you. Chat is nit mean to come from heart, its maybe from keyboard and skills. Most people know but not aware.

So, I think is social media will help you in various ways but there is not much guaranty. Use it as a helper to help you, became your is not to make it happy. Think twice before you leap into any decision, you should think if it really matter.

NO, Nowadays overall our whole youth generation is using social media. This is like changing generations, Whenever generation changes it made a change between our generation and the last generation. But now social media is not a change it is an evolution.

It is changing people's behavior, their living, thinking, and almost everything. People are feeling more connected over social media rather than people around them. In the future, it will cause a big problem.

Yes, no doubt about it is that social media connect people but it matters that how it connecting by virtually or by heart relation. Nowadays, social media is a weapon for a person where they can express their views independently. We can get contact with our long last friends. As contrast people are so busy in social media as they are ignoring their real relation as a result when he/she needs a friend in tough situation there is no one with him/her to vent feelings. Apps used to connect with people depend on person to person if one is choosing someone as close//friend then one should be careful before this as it is online you have not surety about that person that he/she wants your good/bad.

As conclusion want to say that definitely social media connect people but paralleling people are losing real ones as well.

Hello everyone.

Yes, social media is actually connecting people. And it is being a part of our life in these days. But nowadays some people use it in bad ways. So totally it depends on people that how they can it use. Today it takes a very important role in our daily life. Today government has declared to stay at home for 21 days janta curfew due to Corona virus covid 19. So due to social media we updated about Corona virus.

Thank you.

In my opinion it depends on the way we use it, i.e. for the betterment or for the destruction.

Following are the few pros:

1) With the help of various social media applications like fb, insta we can always be connected to our long lost friends. We can know what is happening in their lives like about their weekend plans, places they are travelling to, etc through their stories and posts. This gives us a sense of connection with them.

2) Social media has now become a powerful tool to express our thoughts. Twitter has proved to be an excellent platform for the same. For eg. If we find something wrong happening around us like the police officers misbehaving, taking a bribe or something like that we can just take the video of the same and post it, it may become viral in very less time and quick action against the wrong can be taken.

3) Various platforms like Linkedin have proved to be an excellent way of connecting to professional people and increasing networking. This will in long run help in searching of jobs, gaining knowledge, interacting with the people having the same or similar qualification.

4) Social media provides a platform to content creators to share their content like memers to share their memes, poets to share their poetry and shayaris. These people try their best to connect to their current followers and increase the same.

According to me every term has it's own pros and cons and here social media have also.

At one point, social media is connecting people by Facebook, Instagram, WhatsApp etc. With the help of social media, people can easily connect to each other whether they are far away from them and can talk for hours and also we can get daily updates on social media we need not to use new apps and by this people become broad-minded.

But on other hand, people use for the negative way also social media is connecting people only on many virtual ones people forget to go out talk with someone they become far from the limited real ones and it has many negatives ways but it depends on people how they take it and apply on them.

Thank you!
