The world of today has been enlivened by a vast series of remarkable achievements and discoveries. One such impeccable model has been the use of social media. It has been utilised as a creative tool for creative individuals, most of whom have seen the light of day, which otherwise would have taken a lifetime to take shape.
The social media boom became rampant in no time as and when it became accessible to the general public. It has been glorified as one of the powerful tools to showcase talents and bring young minds to the fore. The traffic on social media has only been increasing with a gigantic scope for variety, keeping it's users and viewers on their toes.
What was kept private in the past, is no more kept anonymous due to the birth and proliferation of social media platforms. The lives of celebrities being shared on these arenas keep their followers updated very efficiently. Expression of love through comments, gives a boost to people to continue doing their jobs with great zeal. This forum could be viewed as having therapeutic benefits, as boredom and depression are kept away.
Social media platforms have helped in achieving the impossible. Markets and shops float freely, advertising their products and services that reach the multitude, online. Educational content on social media has been getting better by the day, attracting people of all ages. The access to sharing data across all platforms of social media, has been a significant advantage to users.
Motivational speakers are gaining importance, considering the present scenario, wherein life is considered valueless, regardless of age and gender. Social media has done a great deal in accumulating current events from the world over and presenting them to it's viewers, for them to access it anytime they want it, as data does not have an expiry date.
Social media sites have united friends and families, despite being miles apart. It is greatly admirable that we have the privilege of seeing the faces of our loved ones whenever we miss them.
A lot of people use social media to voice their opinions, that reach a large audience with prompt support and feedback. The realm of social media is unending and users can always expand the horizon of their insights from life to share it with people, to a very large extent. Opportunities for employment are always on the rise, as bloggers, photographers, videographers, dancers, singers, musicians and other artistes have gained a lot of public attention.
According to me, social media is the voice of the voiceless and has been a great boon to humanity. About fifty years ago, nobody would have pictured the entire world, connected to one another on a flat device that sat on the palm of a hand. Acknowledging the greatness social media has done unto us, it is in our interest that we improvise this tool, the best way possible and not exploit it for selfish reasons, so that, the generations to come, feel blessed having access to social media.
