Thats the question on people's minds and the answer differs from one person to the next. In my opinion social media has made our lives easier because almost every person can now access the internet. It is transforming the way people communicate and the information is exchanged within seconds at a cheaper price. Its no suprice that the revolution driven by the young generation has taken over the world. Between laptops, smartphones and tablets, most are well connected to the social media. Gone are the days when our only source of infomation was TV, newspapers and magazines which were at first controlled by the government, informing the broadcasting team what the public should and should not know.
Benefits of social media
The arrival of the internet has changed how information is consumed and traditional media have partly moved online where information is easier to find, manage and share. Information consumpion have turned more digital and news spread quickly from one person to another. I believe that change is the rule of nature and that social media is the advanced and improved form of traditional media.
Obviously the new media is powerful so social media and its features are a winner they are very efficient and effective I can say user friendly but I hate its negative disadvantages. Traditional media is still the best but to a minimal
ReplyDeleteI agree, social media is more powerful and people can access it anywhere unlike traditional media but it has its advantages and disadvantages. But i guess we cant survive without it and it makes our lives easy.

DeleteGreat angle Ms Dlamini. Social media has made our lives easier, and it enhances our knowledge abilities at an extreme level than on the previous years.
