“Half of the world's population is now online, which is a testament to the speed with which digital connectivity is helping to improve people's lives. The increase in internet users in developing economies is particularly encouraging,” said Simon Kemp

Earlier it was one brand and one product but now there are many brands which has led to the competition between the manufactures for the selling of their product as a result the prices are increasing with increasing demands. In that context, a national survey of 1,520 adults conducted March 7-April 4, 2016, finds that Facebook continues to be America’s most popular social networking platform by a substantial margin. Americans1 (79%) now use Facebook, more than double the share that uses Twitter (24%), Pinterest (31%), Instagram (32%) or LinkedIn (29%).

We are living in a world of social media and young adults who initially felt socially isolated turned to social media. Increased use of social media has led the feeling isolation from the real world. It also could be a combination of both.

Increasing brand participation in messaging platforms

Social media is a platform wherein you post things.

But you never know when it turns into a coffin

On festivals it is not about the culture

But showing off on facebook, whatsapp and twitter

Bane or a boon atleast I can't decide

But has changed a lot since ancient times

Cyber bullying the devil of the new century.

But can handle it with a bit privacy

Earlier it was one product one brand.

But now it is one product and thousands of brands

Brand participation is more than ever.

Which has increased the prices till heaven.

but it doesn't matter because

to show off we dont think even once

Personal relationships are the favourite target of social media.

But it still doesn't change our attitude and idea

Rich are getting richer, poor are getting poorer.

It is because some unfaithful politicians are there

At last I would like to say,

It is in our hand

Whether we want social media as a boon or a bane and then take a proper stand.

Increasing Use Of Social Media

Social media has given the fastest swing to our society. This swing can be a good or bad fortune to our society. It completely depends on us how we use it and how much time we are spending on it. Social media sites and apps have made it easy to interact with people and has changed our lives. But people are nowadays so busy on social media that they don't have time to greet their own relatives. But it has made everything open to the people and has made our work easy to some extent.

"Wake up and grab your phones,

Cause there is a notification."

The above statement is a true fact about our today's daily life. People are buffed to social media. They are least bothered about the happenings around them and are more interested to spend time on social media. It has also led to many cyber crimes. People can nowadays easily hack your phones and computers. These hackers will take all your personal information and bank details present in your PC or mobile. Sometimes they even demand for money which could be a very huge amount. Children are also being attacked by these cyber crimes. They mainly take away all your information even about their families and some demand them to suicide. Some children are psychologically weak and they commit suicide. People also tend to spread fake news on social media and other people start believing that news. Young children are getting spoilt due to its misuse. It may have a negative effect on child's mental growth. Social media is so powerful that it can change a person's negative thinking to a positive thinking or positive thinking to the negative one. People are nowadays more interested to click pictures and post on social apps. People also post their locations. Robbers take advantage of their foolishness and rob their houses. Social media is being misused nowadays a lot.

It is actually a means which can be very helpful to people if they use it wisely. People get choice to buy things and can compare different prices. People can interact face to face with other people through video calls. It can give us information about anything we want. It can also help the children in their education and can also connect the world. Social media is useful but don't let it overwhelm you.
