The idea is that we all have at least one social network account. I assume that all your friends have Facebook, right? Perhaps not all, as many have closed their Facebook accounts because Instagram is more popular nowadays. What have they discovered? According to Nadkarni and Hofmann (2012), the use of Facebook is justified by two main needs: the need to belong somewhere and the presentation of self. Social scientists have studied users on Facebook trying to figure out why they use this network. The need to belong somewhere and self-promotion Maybe, we’ll succeed together (clearly I also need this) to make an objective analysis on the influence that social networks have on our lives. Today, I will show you a couple of aspects that you’ve probably heard about, but which I don’t think you’ve acknowledged yet.
Well, I’ll admit that I also quickly skim-read articles about social media, because I usually like to read about positive things.
All people around us speak about this, so much so that it has become a common or ignored subject. I will not say it is negative or positive, but it definitely changes you. I came to realize that social media, besides being attractive and all-consuming, can also have an enormous impact on your everyday life. And, of course, the reaction is always the same: you leave the phone for 2 minutes, you pretend to pay attention to what is being said, but then you pick it up again to see how many likes you have gathered for the new photo posted or to check your WhatsApp. More often to me, because I happen to work in this field, but I am sure that you also hear the above phrases countless times, especially from your parents. Things like “ put that phone down!” or „Are you posting on Instagram again?” … Basically, these remarks have become a part of my everyday life – it’s like someone would say to me “hi, how are you?”. I can barely count on my fingers all the arguments I’ve heard. We’ve heard so many times that social media, the Internet, technology, all together have more disadvantages than advantages.
