The term Social
came in use as it gives us a chance to peep into the lives of
innumerable users, irrespective of whether we know them or not and
invade their privacy. The term Media was taken as it serves as the
perfect medium to make us crippled and hooked to this addiction. Such
has been the scene that users of all age groups have lost the essence
of the 'personal touch' and stay logged into their system for endless
hours, getting a bureau of all going on in the lives of others.
The medium has not
only invaded our private lives and hampered it to a certain extent,
but it has its pros as well. Making us aware of issues, problems,
obstacles, be it related to personal, professional, natural
calamities or anything under the sun you are sure to find a solution
on the mediums.
Why Social Media Platforms?
People, in
general, were finding it tough to stay connected via emails, phone
chats or all other forms of sources that let them be in touch. The
launch of such platforms like Facebook, Twitter, Pinterest, LinkedIn,
etc. have shrunk the globe and made us all nearer and dearer to each
other. Instant help, resolution of problems, staying in touch,
getting a grab of what others are up to are resorted at once.
What Now?
Going by the
numbers, such platforms are here to stay and are expanding day by
day! Such has been the craze that users tend to stay online most of
the time, reverting back to whatever they find attractive to respond
to.
