The Good and the Bad-Social media

The Good and the Bad

Social Media has good and bad qualities and in my blog I am going to highlight the best and worst traits to social media.Social media has become not only a part of modern lifestyle but a useful marketing channel for businesses of all sizes

 Good:

Social media has given us a platform where we can access information easily and immediately when we want it,Twitter gives us immediate updates on big events,news and world disasters "Back when the government raided Osama Bin Laden’s fortress there was a nearby citizen live tweeting his observations of the whole situation through the night. I was out at an event that evening, and learned of it pretty soon after news broke domestically, directly from my contacts on Twitter"(Tommy Lanndry)This shows how fast and efficient social media is for us.

Today's world with social media in it has made it possible to communicate with people easily through

Facebook,Twitter and messenger, It's not like the old days when you would try to contact your friend by calling their phone, and if they didn't answer then you would have to try calling again when they were home or you would have to call to their house. Now we can contact friends and family from hundreds of different social media sites.

Social media has given small businesses to get their name out into the world like never before, small businesses can now spread their company's ideas and name on Twitter,Facebook, YouTube and many more social media platform's, Before a small business could not get there business known as quick as we can today and that has made a huge impact to the world of Business. 

Now it's time to talk about what I believe are the bad parts of social media

Bad:

The worst part to social media is that people can be anonymous, Yes its good to be private and people not always knowing who you are but being anonymous online has created a platform of evil trolls who abuse people online and hide behind their screens.

In summary I love social media and believe it has become a huge part of our world for the Good!
