Social media Role



The media is vital in forming a healthy democracy. It is a democracy’s backbone. The media keeps us informed about numerous social, political, and economic events taking place across the world. It’s like a mirror that reflects or tries to reflect the harsh realities of life.



Some people may use social media to injure others unnecessarily by using abusive language. Such actions are the absolute worst. A social media platform is a very large platform that allows you to include crores and crores of individuals.



Other forms of new media, such as a podcast or a smartphone app, are completely new. When you consider that the definition is always changing as technology advances, it becomes much more difficult to define.



The internet has drastically altered how individuals communicate and interact with one another. The web connects individuals together as a method of social contact – friends, relatives, young people, or complete strangers who share interests or aims – and this can build a sense of belonging and identity.



The Internet revolutionised the way we create and consume practically all forms of media in only one generation. Today, the act of consuming media generates a completely new type of it. The social data layer, which tells the tale of what we enjoy, what we watch, who and what we pay attention to, and where we are while doing so.



People, on the other hand, have always sought out ways to interact with one another. People have discovered ways to be socially active on the internet in this age of digitisation, which is possible thanks to the proliferation of social networking platforms and apps.



It is critical to use them and to use them well, as they have the ability to influence everything around you.



“THE POWER OF SOCIAL MEDIA IS THAT IT FORCES NECESSARY CHANGE.”



………..Erik Qualman
