Since social media has been a big trend on the internet and the world, We all have different outlooks and perspectives toward the vision of empowerment and communications that social media has that a lot of people are in, however my vision for social media and what I want to get out of it is to inspire, share my views/opinions and to educate others in the life experiences I have had and will continue to have. My vision is to raise awareness on certain issues that have me deeply interested in and to make a difference one person and many people at a time.
Some people create blogs, and become active on social media to see where things will take each and everyone of us and the purpose we have to get to that point. Still, I think the traditional word of mouth is something much more powerful, however with this new age in technology, with communication that has gotten a lot easier than years ago, information gets sent instantly on the other side of the world with just a click of a button. It is incredible where inventions, technology has led us to a new realm of today, tomorrow and the future.
Social media has different levels of how we look at it, some always want it to be fun with posting funny jokes, memes, and doing funny things all the time, some post inspirational quotes, some post photos of themselves and/or with friends/family, postings about so many things.
Advertising has become a lot easier with posting events, flyers, sharing it on twitter, on Facebook news feeds, walls, inviting people to pages, fan pages, groups, also making it easy to RSVP to events, people post up greeting cards, Photoshopping, and all kinds of interesting and neat things. Social media is a huge thing in the world right now and it is getting more popular as time goes by.
A few people have messaged me in the last few years and have asked me “What are you getting out of social media”? My answer is simple, to empower, to communicate, to keep in touch, to meet new people, inspire, and with the hopes of changing the world and the perspective on life with my words and to spread love, happiness, joy and smiles across the globe. Once someone posts something, it is out there for the world to see.
We all understand social media in different context and ways and what we define our vision of it is. Some use social media to communicate with family and friends, some use it for business/commercial use and as well as many other things. No matter how we look at social media, we must always be very careful of the information we transmit and not post anything and everything that goes on in our lives for the world to see.
The biggest vision of mine is to communicate to the world through my eyes, my words, and my thoughts to the world as much as possible.
So true. This is why people should all be concerned with the push to abolish net neutrality. It was, and still is, the underlying principal that led the way for things like social media to flourish. The internet is OUR online global consciousness, free and open for all, i hope it always stays that way too. Great post. ๐
Thank you for sharing your idea. It is a great reminder.
good view, I would also like to add: To be inspired by others, to look at things,people and situations from a different perspective and last but not least respecting others and their opinion.
Very Nice Indeed ๐
Very true, people are too quick to go on social media to have a rant or even tell us that they are going to loo. In away although I love social media my self, I still much prefer to pick up the phone and talk to a friend or meet them for coffee for a catch up. But then I am a bit of a old school girl because I enjoy the pen and paper exercise of writing a letter and getting the postman to deliver it to their home.
