Hello everyone, social media connects people a lot. And it's very useful when people are far away from home, so it's a better way to stay in touch with them. And it is very useful in job seeking. As we are all used to social media to connect with people, I thought real connections are within ourselves when we meet someone and Friends face to face, then only the heartfelt feelings to really connect with people. Our bonding will strengthen the relationship and mutual understanding. Thank you.

While social media has its downsides, I think it's undeniably connecting people in many ways.
For instance, it helps us stay in touch with friends and family who are far away. I've reconnected with old classmates on Facebook and kept up with their lives. Plus, social media platforms have given voices to marginalized communities, allowing them to share their stories and raise awareness about important issues.
We do need to be mindful of how we use social media. Instead of just scrolling mindlessly, we can use it to engage in meaningful conversations and build communities around shared interests. Let's focus on using social media intentionally and fostering genuine connections.

From my perspective, social media connects people primarily in a digital sense rather than on an emotional level. Platforms such as video-calling applications mainly help us share our thoughts and stay in touch with our families and loved ones, but they cannot truly replicate the emotions we experience when we meet someone in person. However, this does not mean that social media is ineffective.
In fact, it is highly beneficial in today’s fast-paced world, where most people are busy earning a living and often lack the time to meet friends and family regularly. In such circumstances, social media plays an important role in helping people stay connected. Nevertheless, it is worth thinking about how beautiful life could be with less digital interaction and more face-to-face relationships.

Hi everyone,
As per my thought yes, social media is actually connecting people. We all get to know about the people in the other country through which we get so many benefits, for example, if I know a recruiter or an hr through a social media app, I can get a referral from him/her, which will not happen in a physical interaction because physical interaction is not possible every time.

Yes, social media is connected to people because this is a 21 century and people don't have much time to personally meet the close friends or relatives. So, social media is one of the best platform to connect each other. Its also very helpful to us.

Hello everyone.
In my opinion, this statement has different point of views.
Firstly it helps you connect with anyone in any part of the world without any barriers. A recent example that comes to my mind is about COVID-19. The whole world was under lockdown, in such a situation social media has helped people connect with their friends, family, etc who are stuck somewhere due to lockdown and quarantine restrictions.
On the other hand, social media has greatly weakened physical connections. People arent prioritizing physical meetups like before, rather they convey through social media.
In conclusion, social media has its own merits and demerits, its on us people how we decide to use it.
Thank You.

In my opinion, social media is actually connecting people via multiple app.
No doubt but it has both advantages and disadvantage so its important that we all Maintain a healthy life style that is balanced in nature not to be too depended on Apps and social media take time to spend with family. Try to set up rules at home/school/office for use of social media. Setting up events or social gathering etc to overcome.
The AI mode which is overcoming the human relation.

According to me, the given statement is partially correct because social media has evolved much more than earlier and is widely available throughout, the good thing is it connects people, we can stay in touch with all our well wihers, family etc and easyliy share our opinions, life happenings, emotions with them but on the other side their is a mark on this phenomenon that people who once used to meet regularly arent prioritizing physical meetups today as they can convey everything they want through internet.
Above everything, there will always be a heart out of satisfaction when you truly interact with others in a traditional way, which is now getting faded due to excessive use of social media.
Human emotions are losing their natural regulations, and the values are getting demoted so rapidly.
This is just my personal opinion.

Good afternoon everyone.
Myself Santosh Mishra. I am very happy to say that I got this opportunity to talk about the topic. First of all, I want to say that in the living world, social media plays a vital role. As per my thoughts, social media connecting people or building a large network with each other because if we tell example of web then in that app we chat each other to share information although we don not each other for a reason so in that case a stranger or unknown person connected with another and also there is a pros to connect a stranger person such as they can help us at specific situation. And also there are many platforms in which we can connect people over the network such as Twitter, Instagram and Faceboof etc. So, according to me, social media platform connects people over the network.
THANK YOU.
