By USTANI G COACHING CENTREWe live in a time when technology has reached such heights that no aspect of life is complete without it. Social networking sites are that innovation of technology that makes this huge world of our look small. In this modern world, social networking sites plays a major role among the youngsters and the population of using these sites grow day by day in a large number. These types of sites mainly offer an online service in which the people can share their views, opinions and other stuffs. Many off these sites contain the messaging facility, which is the main factor that attracts the people towards it. These sites are web based and requires an Internet connection to chat with other around the world.
Some of the social networking sites that are popular in this current scenario include : Facebook, Twitter etc.
These sites generally attract the people by offering various services like Chatting, Gaming, Instant Messaging, Photo sharing, Videos etc.
MERITS:
Beginning with the advantages of the various social networking sites such as Twitter, Facebook, Instagram and various others; these give us a platform to express our thoughts and share it with billions of people out there, know their views and interact with them. Apart from communication between people it also gives us an opportunity to get various information about the people or celebrities we admire.
Social networking sites have been the place to discuss issues that are international, national, local and have time and again attracted attention of concerned authorities which is a great advantage.
It can be used as a platform to promote and advertise business.
DEMERIT:
In the same time, there are lots of security issues faced by them while updating their personal information on these sites. It is advisable not to update the personal information on these sites, as these sites are more hacked by the hackers and sometimes can be dangerous to your life.
Through social networking, person has a lot of friend but the quality and integrity of these friendships is not always true. On the other hand, data on these social-networking sites for a person is not always 100% honest and reliable, and they do not verify personal details (age, location, etc.) of their members.
The amount of time spent by individuals with each other online has risen to greater extent. This has effect on health of individuals, because spending a lot of time browsing these social networks can affect the way the genes operate within the human body, and weakens the immune and hormone levels. In addition, it is also has an impact on mental health. Moreover, the use of social networking in the education can cause lack of motivation towards learning and can be boring sitting in front of computer for a long time.
CONCLUSION: Social network has made the life of people more easy and interesting, its negative impact has created insecurity among them. Everything has some good effects and some bad effects but it fully depends on individual how to utilize good effect and how to convert bad effects into good effects. At last I would like to conclude
“SOCIAL MEDIA SHOULD IMPROVE YOUR LIFE, NOT BECOME YOUR LIFE!”
