Here I am with another trending topic of our life, social media a necessity of everyone's life. It has become an important part that we can't live without.
Social media is an interactive technology which allows the user to share or exchange there knowledge, career interest, information or any other experience on a virtual community and group.
Social media first started in 1997, the first social media site was SIX DEGREES it was pretty popular among the users till 2003, until other social media platforms came one after another, in recent times we mostly use FACEBOOK and INSTAGRAM these two platforms are providing almost each and everything to the users from sharing knowledge to showing your talent.
Main function of social media
Identity building, conversation, relationship, sharing , presence, groups, reputation.
Above all are the main functions of social media where everyone wants to show their life which is not true as per research, all of us are showing what all we have got and how happy we are in our life by posting pictures of traveling, eating in luxury restaurants, wearing all expensive clothes, having thousand of followers and friends on social media accounts. It gives a relaxed feeling, but when we look at our lives we all are frustrated, because of what someone else has and we don't.
In todays world we all are running behind the fame we are getting from social media every morning we wakeup the first thing we want is our smart phone just to check our social media, the likes and comments have become an addiction of our life the more likes and comments we have on our post the more happy we are and if there are less like and comment our whole day is gone into negativity and thinking why people don't like my post. Even after having numerous friends online there will be only few of them whom you would really talk to or they can help us in our difficult times.
Smartphones and social media has replaced our family time, books, outdoor plays, rest time, face to face conversation, whatever we do we need our smart phone because that's the another face of us now.
Social media is supposed to be a place where we can help each other and show our self to the world as its the biggest virtual gathering of people.
