ACTIVITY/ASSIGNMENT

A. Assess and report your perception/experience (good and non-good) of the Facebook Social
Media.

Answer:

Most of the time, I always use my facebook account. For this Facebook Social media is good because I
express my feelings through posting pictures, like for pictures of my friends and updated on a new
information. And I can see and contact my old friend for how many years that I never seen it. It is the
most use for our new generation today. And my perception on Facebook can be very addictive for its
members. Once you stay connected with friends, you will realize how often you login for another chat
and discover what other members are doing. Some people know the drawbacks of Facebook but cannot
help staying connected with old friends who they haven’t seen in years. All this will certainly make you
addicted to Facebook and will stop you from deleting your account. And it was wasting my time and
efforts. But is that all? What about the proportion of people who are slowly losing their place in the real
world and are being sucked into the virtual void of Facebook?
Facebook is one of the best social media platforms for businesses when used in the right way but as they
say, everything has its own downfall. There are certain Facebook disadvantages as well.

1. Casual Approaches

The majority of people who use Facebook belong to the teenage hood.
It is that period in life when you hardly know where to draw the line and they are vulnerable and are
easily prone to get addicted.
Because of this, you lose the real connection you have with people.
Everything turns into online conversations where you can express only half of what you feel.
You lose quality time with your family and friends and you start to isolate yourself.
You start building a wall around yourself and shut everyone out. This is one of the main causes of
depression.

2. Disconnecting Closer Human Bonds

The second tragic thing is Facebook reminding you of your best friend’s birthday!
What happened to those special midnight wishes?
What happened to that human bond?
Now it’s all just a “Happy birthday” in his/her timeline. That’s it

3. Privacy
Back in those days, people preferred to keep their life private.
It is okay to want your friends to know what is happening in your life but it’s a different thing when you
let the whole world see it by posting literally every second of your life online.
Too much attention can attract unwanted and unnecessary trouble in your life.
Trust me, it is always better to have pride in keeping your personal life personal.

4. Communication
Hours of phone calls have now been easily replaced by texts on the go. Basically, it’s just a way of
killing the English language and shortening the words as you wish because you’re just too lazy to type
what you wish to convey.

5. Low Productive
Facebook is widely being used by people as the ultimate way to kill time. When you stop using
Facebook by silently reading the news feed here and there, the chances of you working productively is
likely to increase.

6. Security
Security is another important constraint. Facebook has all your details from your Email id to your
phone number. In this era of information technology, tracking you is as easy as gobbling up a piece of
cake.

7. Advertisements
These advertisements attract people and kindle the shopaholics especially and encourage them to
waste money.

8. Health
Facebook spoils your health as well. Spending hours together in front of the computer screen can
damage the eyes and cause headaches and mental stress. It also physically makes you an unfit person.

each fluencies.

intended audience and purpose.
