Are you social media Fan are you online 24x7 no matter what even during your lectures or classes or at work?

its fun being part of social media and its loop and if you arent you are missing the real fun some people also quote this as you are missing the liveliness - your life..you do not exist

students prefer comment on their frnds status or updates rather than taking notes in their lectures they find this interesting

a user says that one would prefer doings things online rather doing it in real life

people have developed photography skills to upload the best pic on fb they know their angles well

if you go to a party, one of the most important aspects of going to the party is to document yourself for online posts. You have to prove you were looking good, you were having fun, and that you were actually there! It’s not about the party anymore but about the pictures of the party.

isnt that true?

Some new research has shown that social networking can also have positive effects on teens such as helping introverted adolescents forge relationships or providing a venue for activism and political engagement. But, given the lure of spending too much time plugged in and the self-esteem issues related to the constant scrutiny of one’s online persona, how can parents help their kids have a healthy and productive relationship with technology?

"If you are social media addict you can use it in positive way also and gradually make it from addiction to value added trait with controlled exposure.
Social networking sites should be viewed as complementary to your online presence where your target should be achieving professional goals as well..
Social media sites can be used and are helpful for different things; some of us share photos and personal thoughts on Facebook while some others prefer the simplicity and brevity of Twitter and others will post their work history and references in LinkedIn.
Social media sites are also a great way to keep in touch with family and friends.
Now Social media can give way to Social Professional Networking like Linkedin, Quora etc which includes educational and business pages so that you will in touch to increase your knowledge."
