Social media is one of the biggest shifts since the industrial revolution. Social media has one of the biggest impacts on people in the modern world, especially generation X and Y, the younger population. Social media has become a large part of people’s lives, and how they connect and interact with each other. I feel so many people have been so drawn into the social media aspect of things, and at times escape reality from how they act online rather than in reality and real life. Social media has become somewhat of an addiction, and necessity to people’s lives...
Cell phone usage has increased dramatically due to the increase of the “smart phone” technology; this has allowed people to be connected 24 hours a day 7 days a week, yearly. People can always stay connected ether through phone or the internet. The advancement in technology has allowed social media to evolve into more than just a way to connect with people but also has become a main source of communication and networking. From your average every day person to small and large business, they both are connected through social media such as a Facebook page, or twitter account.
Social media is taking over the world and will continue to grow and evolve into the main source of communication, if it isn’t already.
