Social Media in our Society

Social media is very important in our society. It is used for good and for bad. God has given us this great tool to communicate with people all over the world with a click of a button. We are able to get updates on people life's, rate certain items of stores, and even give our opinion of other peoples comments. We are so intact with social media that peolple are actually addicted to it. In the past when we though of an addiction, we always though of food, drinks, and even drugs but now a days we are addicted to social media. Humans spend hours online searching the web to communicate with each other. I can admit that I am slightly addicted to social media. I have a facebook, Instagram and Snapchat. Instagram is what I used most and I can say I spend about 2 hours a day on it. That is, 14 hours a week and 56 hours a week. That is a lot for only an application that shows pictures.
For this class i chose to pick twitter to use as my new social media. I never though twitter was useful in my life and though it was a pointless application, but I am looking forward to use it and understand the true use for it's invention. I use Facebook about 4 times a day but it is very quick, so I think about an hour a day. One of the mayor articles that we discussed in class was the fact that Facebook is going to be down 80%. I don't really think that happens to be true. The facts backing it up are very week and just because Google search of Facebook is down doesn't mean anything. I believe that Facebook is evolving tremendously with society that we as society will always use it for many years to come. Maybe it is the teenagers that don't use it as much but once they get older and move away from home and friends, it will be convenient to use Facebook to stay in touch with friends and family.
