Twitter. Facebook. Myspace are some examples of social media, and I bet as soon as you hear these words, you can add at least another three sites to that list off the top of your head. But you ask, what is social media? Social media is an umbrella term that defines the various activities social interaction, and the construction of status, words, and pictures. This action lets you share your stores, pictures and comment on your friend’s stories and pictures also.
I don’t think this is a fads I think this is a big shift that will only continue to get bigger each day. We are starting to rely on this a lot, even business are starting to use this to promote their stuff that there selling or when a store is having a sale. But I think this could be a very bad thing in the future also because people are going to come very additive to this kind of social, instead of face to face and getting out in the world, and this would mean that people will probably come more unfit because you’re going to be able to do everything from your own house so you won’t be getting any exercise.
Technology keeps on growing each day, now they have a phone out on the market that has a Facebook button so you can instantly post stuff to Facebook by only touching one button. The cell phone market is probably going to start putting this on most of the phones now because camera/ video camera have it now, so it’s going to a mandatory thing to have on your device now. Facebook also made a market place app too, so now you can sell/ buy stuff right from Facebook.
Keep on checking my blog every week there should be something new on each time you visit it!!!
Its going to go far beyond that. I think people forget that technology advancing is exponentially. It helps itself grow. Just this year at the Consumer Electronic Show they have had some outrageous new tech. From a machine that can literally create stuff by pressing a button and giving it blueprints, to LED tvs that you can carry like a purse. Within 5 years I bet we will have kick ass sunglasses that do everything our current cellphones do and more.
ReplyDeleteHey Brandon,
ReplyDeleteYou have a really good point with all of us starting to rely and being more and more addictive to this kind of social media. Also it's true that social media has helped a lot of businesses with promoting there products, which means that now the businesses sales will be increasing. This is due to social media.
I think you made a great point by saying that technology is going to continue to grow bigger and bigger and by stating that the easier technology has become to use, the more society has become dependent on it which isn't good. Also how this will cause a problem in the near future due to lack of exercise. I completely agree with the points you have made. Great blog post!
