So while we were thinking about social media, we came up with a few things, but then we thought, why not ask the people who are affected by social media on a day to day basis…

a few things, but then we thought, why not ask the people who
are affected by social media on a day to day basis…

3. “Distracted from
distraction by
distraction”
On the Internet ever since she’s back,
Focus on studies and extras, does she lack,
I took away laptop and tv time,
Now, crying videos are up on Vine,
Cause the phone won’t leave her side,
Social Media rules, is all she abides.

4. More than 20% of an average youth’s time, is spent on Social Media.
Even when they are with peers, they’re probably “checking-in”, or clicking selfies
“Tweeting” about my
“Blog”, that got 100
likes on “FaceBook
“with my “#selfie”
validating my “interest”
in Writing.
Just to upload it.
Social Media, is no longer a networking tool, Social Media has created a Virtual
Reality in the minds of the users, a world determined by the likes, shares, and
comments!

5. Is My
MemoPad
“OOPS! I am so sorry Darling, I forgot to
wish you, I guess my Blackberry didn’t
sync your birthday from FaceBook”
“OMFG! Alia Bhatt tweeted inviting ME
for her Wedding?? She’s getting married
to Arjun Kapoor!! I knew it”
“Di, thats an invitation, not for her
wedding, for her film, 2states!”
“oh ya! Thats releasing!”

6. Is
An
Epidemic
An Umbrella is what this epidemic is,
The only way to get updates from Liz,
Its a crime to call and ask where are you?
Check you feeds, am in the Club’s Queue!
I got to know about my Grandsons first cry,
After a few refreshes, and the continuous try,
He’s 2 months now, and has an account,
Linked to many more than my account!
Its a viral diseases that’s spread,
A million people, jobs its fed,
Laziness or simplification thats still a mystery,
Hopefully, i’ll find the answer on YOURSTORY!

7. A million
views on
YouTube!!
No #1
Trend on
Twitter The Competition
has
Gone Viral
10000 shares!
50000 likes!
The Advertiser’s Holy Bible
Be it the million Dove Ad’s you skip,
Or the continuous reminder by Jabong on
your FB page,
The consumer is no longer coming to the
brand, its time the brand managed to
penetrate the consumers mind.
And well, adwords, band with advertising
and mapping has given so many cheat codes
to the game!

8. Is the place to
go, to find
Anyone,
easily.
So many rishta’s for my daughter,
So many handsome kids,
But, Mrs. Sharma thought she wont
tell me, but i went on facebook and
saw
Rahul has a girlfriend
Raman Drinks
Sunny is too dark
I think Saurabh is gay!
I guess Hari is fine
Let me join the pics on my instagram
and see how they look!

9. Well, Social Media is expression to some
A place where there thoughts can be
viewed by several
People with similar views, or the ones with
different can converse on several platforms.
Social Media is a great place to find new
connections
Social Media, helps me express whats
within me to a world that cant judge, cause
they don’t really know me, they only know
my thoughts!!

10. Social Media!
• Its like an umbrella that brings everyone together. With a single
click, I can connect and share things with 100s of people at once.
• It’s an invasion of privacy: Everyone knows where I am and what I
do at what point of time
• It’s a platform to share and express: I can express and share ideas
through blogs and let everyone see it. So it’s like a diary that I write,
but the difference is that it is open for people to like and comment.
• It is a virtual world that I live in. I connect to 100s of people
through facebook, write blog articles, tweet about trends, and see
the likes and shares I get everyday.
• It’s the place to build connections. An account on Linkedin or
twitter helps exactly in doing that.
• In short, it is the future, and while it has it’s advantages, it can also
be misused.
