I personally think it is a fad cause the media is showing us that its something that everyone is using and that we need to use it. Remember the world is starting to turn into a technological world and social media will turn into biggest shift since the Industrial Revolution.Kenan Rileyhttps://www.blogger.com/profile/07994453084435543865noreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-312730484814550836.post-45993014298357403982012-01-14T20:56:37.710-08:002012-01-14T20:56:37.710-08:00I agree that social media is not a fad because the...I agree that social media is not a fad because the way people joining these sites are increasing day by day. These social media is bringing new technology to their sites so that they can get more users like facebook has added a video call feature with the help of skype. People have also started saying that treat your facebook page like a resume. According to the Newsweek article, only 17% of users change their privacy settings to limit who can view their pages. <br />So I think social media is not only limited for personal use but is also used by professionals to market their company and to know more about you before meeting in person.ravihttps://www.blogger.com/profile/07538597141237765409noreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-312730484814550836.post-56405617112596686852012-01-13T09:32:52.827-08:002012-01-13T09:32:52.827-08:00I agree that social media is not a fad but it will...I agree that social media is not a fad but it will change and it will people will get bored with it. When that happens there will be a new social networking site then. The reason why I think this is because I get bored with facebook and I'm not on it as much as I use to. But keep in mind that I have moved on to tumblr. And probably soon there will be another site that I go on because I got bored of tumblr (which I highly doubt).Sharla Riddellhttps://www.blogger.com/profile/00772839802024975355noreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-312730484814550836.post-8983023279763951472012-01-11T08:33:46.742-08:002012-01-11T08:33:46.742-08:00I agree it isnt just a fad but the biggest shift s...I agree it isnt just a fad but the biggest shift since the industrial revolution. Although, with all of the social media, it is causing people to not be able to talk to other face to face because they are too used to social media.Gilly33https://www.blogger.com/profile/04912616980483585841noreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-312730484814550836.post-14351958021042552262012-01-11T05:58:09.623-08:002012-01-11T05:58:09.623-08:00i agree,the fact some social media sites are easy ...i agree,the fact some social media sites are easy to navigate and assible as long as you have a internet connection probably has an apeal to alot of people. The fact that facebook and skype for exampe are being used by a wide variety of people from young to old makes it widly usable. if it was a fad usually when another generation gets involved like our grandparents for example, it becomes "uncool" and goes away fairly quickly:Phttps://www.blogger.com/profile/06809607087704334399noreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-312730484814550836.post-35476026546456779642012-01-10T19:05:14.553-08:002012-01-10T19:05:14.553-08:00I agree, most people do go for the unity of freind...I agree, most people do go for the unity of freinds and family. It is something everyone around the world have in common and withouth social media, communications is not that easy.
