Introduction

Now a days we all use social media for sharing content, posting
pictures, keeping updated with the latest things that are happening
around us, some people even use this for bad things like fraud,
scamming, etc.

Now a day we have so much social media platforms some people are
really not even in to all of them, like twitter, Faceb ook, W hatsApp,
Instragam, Snapchat, etc. All of these that I mentioned actually
almost have about the same functions just in a different way but at
the end they are all used for the same thing.

In the following summary I will detail a little more about the social
media and what it’s about.
Summary

Social media is a phrase that we use around a lot these days, often
to describe what we post on sites and apps such as Facebook,
Twitter, Instagram, Snapchat and others.

So in other words social media refers to web-based sites that allow


us to interact with each other.

Instead of using the term of a lot of jargon that would probably only
confuse us perhaps the best way to get a clear understanding of it is
to explain it in a simpler term.

The 'social' part: means interacting with other people by sharing


information with them and receiving information from them.

The 'media' part: refers to an instrument of communication, like the


internet (while TV, radio, and newspapers are examples of more
traditional forms of media).

W e o f t e n g i v e a w a y a l o t o f i n f o r m a t i o n o n s o c i a l m e d i a p a g e s we
don’t even realize, some people are so worried about this identity
thing and they don’t even realize what they post on social media is
not always good.

Conclusion

Social media a way of communicating and can be used for


educational purposes as well as bad purposes, it will depend on
ourselves to learn to use it the correct way most likely kids should
always be talked about the things that go on and how to be careful
with the use of this instrument. If we all use it in a safe way it we
will be able to get many benefits from it.
