In today's life we cannot live without social media. But, we think about sometimes if it is making our life better. Social media such as FB Twitter insta is helping us to connect to people all around the world. It has now become so easy for us to connect with friends and relatives whom we had met a long time ago and we might have lost connections due to some reasons. It helps in making those bonds stronger. But at the same time, it is disconnecting us from the people around us. We spend lots of hours on social media. As a result of this, we don't get time for our family, our loved ones, our parents and children.

So a balance needs to be brought between the time that we spend on social media and our family.

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.

In my opinion, social media can do both like connecting new people and disconnecting remaining people like family, friends etc.

Nowadays all are using social media platforms like Facebook, Twitter, Instagram etc. These apps are connecting new people.

And making new friends. It is a good thing and at a time it has so many disadvantages like so many people addicted to social media and neglecting their families, friends etc.

Social media helps us to communicate with long-distance people and make new friends and know about things happening around the world.

Finally, I conclude that social media helps us to connect with people and also it leads to neglecting our own family members who are living with us.

Hello friends. Nowadays Connectivity increases due to social media we can access people whom we met long time ago and also help us in difficult situations sometimes we met generous helpful people but majorly it's connectivity is limited to posting stories reels sharing. People aren't interested in knowing about you are real life they worried about you when you post something sad and happy about you when you post something good people have time to accessibility digital sites but doesn't want real talk this creates hypes also that this person is doing this I also want to do this. Nowadays social media influencing very much not connecting. But we can ignore that fact sometimes it influence in a good way.

Hi everyone.

In my opinion, social media connects people. Nowadays we are using many social media apps like Instagram, telegram, Facebook and Messenger. All these apps are used to get communicate with people by connecting with people we may get good and bad experiences. If we are connected with good people they may help us to improve our confidence and guide us in a good way and may find solutions to our problems. But connecting with bad people may impact our lives by creating problems, they may guide us in a bad way, and sometimes they may trap us and ask for money. So whatever happens through social media we are responsible for our problems and solutions, do good, and get good things in our lives.

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.

Hello everyone.

I'm Jatin Sapra thanks for giving me an opportunity to share my thoughts on social media.

Social media plays an important role in our lives. Nowadays we commonly use social media sites and apps like YouTube, Instagram, Linked In, and Facebook for sharing information communicating with each other, and chatting with relatives, family, and friends.

But anything access in life is poison and social media is the same as this. There are chances of cyber crimes.

Our information and data should be hacked so we should take care of data breaches.

Everything has pros and cons.

It depends on how we use it. Social media has good or bad effects. It depends on you how we use it?

thank you.

Social media plays a significant role in our life. It connects people all over the world through several apps like Facebook, Instagram etc. Communication becomes more easier than in earlier days. We can also able to connect with our old friends & family members, and relatives and explore new cultures with the help of social media.

But anything excess in life is poison and the same thing goes for social media. Many of us are addicted which can lead to hampering our personal life as well as professional life. So, we should be aware of the limitations of using social media. There are chances of getting cyberbullied, verbally abused & harassed. Our personal data, information can be hacked.

Social media is the biggest platform of in the world. So we learn and gain knowledge by using Social media.

And We can share any topics with World'peoples.

And we get no more chances to learn easily without social media.

Social media helps them "less time and gain more" this is the best quote on my side.

And as well there are so many disadvantages in front of the young generation.

Why because so many youngsters could spend time longer on social media.

Then the habit is very dangerous to get more health problems.

Using this social media through loss of time and inspiration people are made bad chances.

So, please be inspired that but don't addict to heavily with Social media.

Thank you.

Hello Everyone,

My take on this is Ofcourse, social media helps in connecting with people and breaking the geographical barriers, allowing people to connect with individuals worldwide.
Encouraging in international friendships and cultural exchange.

Online communities form around shared interests, hobbies, or causes providing a sense of support.
And platforms like LinkedIn helps in connecting with the industry professionals, finding career opportunities, and knowledge sharing.

And the otherside of the Social media have issues like cyberbullying, online harassments causing emotional harm to the people.

So, yes social media does connect people, and we must acknowledge the negatives as well.
