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!

Good morning all of you.
In my opinion,
Yes, social media really connecting us. Now we can talk with anyone in this world no need to go here and there. It all just possible by the internet. But most of the people using social media very badly like bullying, cybercrime, blackmail, sharing other personal photos, hacking personal details etc. So, social media is good as well as bad just like a coin has two sides. It is up to us how do we use it, that can be for betterment or destruction.
In short, I can say that yes, social media really connecting us, example the early time I was not able to talk with my villagers and my friends but now with the use of social media I can talk with them easily. We must use social media for our betterment, not for destruction.

According to me, Social media has become a huge platform for connecting the people in different ways. It has definitely created a huge change in our lives and today there is no human being who doesn't depend on social media. Starting from our breakfast routine to going back to the bed, each and every activity of ours is being posted on social media. In fact these days, we don't even need a news channel or a radio to be updated to the daily news. That's only because, each and every thing happening in the society is being posted and it requires very less time to become viral. It has helped us in all the ways it can. But we have to make sure, we do not forget our own people going mad for these online websites.

According to my point of view,
Do we really need these social websites to interact with the people we love? What about that love, care, and concern that we used to show before, meeting face to face? Social media can never take that place of personal interactions. It is not that they are not good at all, they definitely help us to remain connected with people, but the increased involvement of social media in life is somewhere making us forget about the warmth and love of real-life connections.

Social media has become a very important part of everyone's lives. It is quite helpful to the adults nowadays. As nobody is really interested in reading the news papers but when the news is spread through social media each one of them reads about it and it helps them know what is actually going on. Also, They can connect to their close one's staying away from them through social media and can share each others lives through it. But simultaneously, it is harmful for the now growing kids as they tend to spend more time on social media than actually meeting people or friends around them. The kids do not want to actually go out and play games but rather spend time in social media by uploading content. This could be leading to connections online only for the sake of having a connection. Because, Children miss out on the real fun in the outside world.

Social Media is one of the fastest and convenient ways of communication. As we all know that everything has a good and evil side. Using this platform people can raise their voice against a lot of things. We all know that the #metoo campaign was also started at these sites which was a great step towards women empowerment.
Where the women can freely speak about the harassment. It has many advantages like we get news about what is happening around the world. We often don't get a chance to meet friends and family who are staying far away or abroad but, we can stay connected with them through social sites like Facebook or Instagram. Our government is also planning to make digital India.
But, I believe without social media it will not be possible to make digital India. But, some people are addicated to social sites by posting their photos and unlikely stuff. Some people use social sites for their carrier and for the job purpose.

In my opinion, now days Social media is very important by which we can communicate with each other. And in this modern world, it has occupied separate time and space in our life. Social media is a group of applications or websites where we can share our thoughts and other important information in few time.

It actually doesn't. We ourselves indulge in scrolling down the phone screens, thus forget to converse with our neighbor ones. Here we lack connectivity in our real life. Though we get lot many friends in social media it won't help us in real life, thus people should live in reality rather searching friends in online.

Hello friends,
Social media does connect to people in all the ways irrespective of where you live geographically provided you have an internet connection.
Social media is an excellent platform to everyone as there is no question of reservation and also there is equality to everyone.
The thing is people should utilize in a proper manner and also have a limit on everything they do online but instead people are misusing and misleading everything in all possible ways.
So social media is actually not connecting to people instead it is distracting their lives from the real-life which is not a good thing and probably affect their future in certain ways.
If we use social media in a proper way not getting distracted and taking all resources which are being provided online for improvising our lives then it would be fine.

Hello friends.
In my opinion, social media is a good tool for communication but not a good tool for a human soul-satisfying connection. You think yourself what gives you more happiness real face to face meet up with your old buddy or a connection with him through social media, ofcourse, the answer would be the first one for the majority. In an era when group activity has been replaced by group chats, meetups replaced by skype calling we have lost the art of making the connection. Take the commmon example at a waiting place all are busy with their phones so making us disconnected. We also cannnot verify the genuineness of virtual communication so it can never replace the trust we have in face to face communication.
