Social Media
“Distracted from distraction by distraction.”
― T.S. Eliot
Social media is a double-edged sword: while it can empower an
individual, it can also mislead and misguide.
If you ask me to name one thing which has empowered the common
man the most in the last 20 years, I will say, social media. We must
embrace all sort of changes, and social media has been the biggest
change in our lives. Earlier a common man had no voice. Television
was the only source through which information reached people, and
that too was controlled by a handful of people.
Today, even if you are a nobody, you can still make lakhs of people
hear what you say. We should all accept social media, make full use
of it and enjoy it too.
Let me share with you my observations on social media.
What should you share on social media? What should you not share
on social media?
