2. POSITIVE IMPACTS OF SOCIAL
NETWORKING SITES ON YOUTH
Relations with friends
Reducing communication barrier
Increasing business opportunities
• To some extent social media increases
the confidence of youth.
3. POSITIVE IMPACTS…
Social networking sites are now
included in the category of most
essential things required for living .
They widen ones horizons of
knowledge.
Through social networking sites we
are able to communicate with new
people in different parts of world .this
enables us to know their trends, way
of working, traditions, culture etc.
4. Social networks have removed all the
communication and interaction barriers, and
now one can communicate his/her perception
and thoughts over a variety of topics.
Students and experts are able to share and
communicate with like-minded people and
can ask for the input and opinion on a
particular topic.
Another positive impact of social networking
sites is to unite people on a huge platform for
the achievement of some specific objective.
This is very important to bring the positive
change in society.
5. We can know different developments
worldwide.
Somehow social networking sites
enable us to be an active part of the
world, and further a part of life of
people we have never met.
6. Social networks help the businesses in
a variety of ways. Traditional marketing
mediums such as the radio, TV
commercials and print ads are
completely obsolete now and demand
for thousands of dollars. However, with
social media the businesses can
connect with their targeted customers
for free, the only cost is energy and
time.
7. The increasing popularity of social sites
like Twitter, Face book and LinkedIn,
social networks has gained attention as
the most viable communication choice
for the bloggers, article writers and
content creators.
8. NEGATIVE IMPACTS OF SOCIAL
NETWORKING SITES ON YOUTH
At any hangout or get-together more time
is spent on clicking snaps and updating
the virtual world on what’s going on, rather
than enjoying the event.
That creates barriers in ones
communication with ones own family.
Nowadays we are interested in updating
the world about our lives rather than giving
a small place to our parents and siblings in
our life.
9. Social-networking sites boosted the world
and especially the youths by a storm
leading to nothing less than a revolution.
There are a lot of concerns about the role
that the social networking sites play in our
lifes .
Further they are now so important that
they play a crucial role in shaping lives of
youths.
10. Social networking sites are responsible for
changing the mindset of youth.
when we grow up in a world where
nowadays our popularity is directly
proportional to the number of “likes” and
the comments we get on our Photoshop-
enhanced profile picture.
Indirectly we are competing with the
people we don’t even know.
11. Another aspect is the loss of private
space.
Status updates, wall post and tweets yell
about every move we make and thus
define us to some extent.
We are ourselves violating our personal
space in an attempt to keep up with a few
hundred people in the virtual world.
12. At last I will like to conclude that our
updates on social networking sites
though may have a lot of adverse
effects but to some extent are
necessary to prevail ones updated
existence in the world.
