Social
Media in this day and age is used for a lot of things, especially for
businesses. Businesses use it to connect with there costumers, promote their
products, and even advertise. It makes it easy for company’s to advertise on
places such as Facebook, twitter, and even snap chat Political campaigns are
run through social media. Candidates constantly update
their thoughts via twitter, and constantly post things on Facebook to get message
across simpler then ever.
A big negative to this is the privacy aspect,
everything is very public. You have to be careful to what you post if you make
it public to friends. Sometimes your views can be offensive and because it so
easily available to see such information you can possibly get yourself in
trouble at work or school. Cookies and certain things we research which are
studied by big data are constantly tracking us.
I
believe technology is going to become more and more important in our daily lives. We are going to keep advancing and
using more in order to connect and make things simpler, in a way it’s exciting,
but also kind of scary.

I like your saying that " We are going to keep advancing and using more in order to connect and make things simpler, in a way it’s exciting, but also kind of scary." I am totally agree with you. New tech has brought so many benefits but we should keep rational. There are lots of things online are fake and dangerous like internet fraud and kidnapping networks. I should be a smart user to keep aware of these things to avoid.
ReplyDeleteI believe that too that technology is going to be more importnat in our lives day by day because everyday other new technologies are born without forgotten the smart phone that can take pictures, text, video, calculator, music player or games.
ReplyDeleteI totally agree ,There are more cons then pros from the virtual worlds. Many different fields of medicine, law enforcement, architecture and aviation. A virtual world provides a chance to experience things that are impossible in real life as if you were actually for example fighting zombies in a game.
