Social Media - A Biggest Shift

I believe Social Media is the biggest shift since industrial revolution. The recent statistics states that 96% of Generation Y has joined the social network. We can find almost every people on social networks such as Facebook, Twitter, Myspace or any other networks. Also, recently stats showed that Facebook added more than 1.5 million of content which includes blogs, links, notes, photos which are shared on it every single day. Facebook is not just a social networking website, but also a place for professionals. It has been said that in the past we have to find the news, but now the news find us. Same is for the products and services. Before we find them, they find us via social media. Not only Facebook, Twitter has also been a most common network now. Last year, Tweets grew to 35 million per day and now a days, there are more than 50 million tweets everyday which is an average of 600 tweets per second. 80% of Twitter and Facebook usage is on mobile devices, which also cause shift in the market for smartphones. People update anywhere, anything and anytime. Today, news spread much more faster through social media rather than TVs, Radios or any other media.

Youtube is the second largest search engine in the world. youtube count hits 3 billion views per day and 48 hours of video are being uploaded per minute. Porn activity has been taken as the number one activity rated by social media. Wikipedia has more than 13 million articles and more and more articles are added everyday. It serves as the best sources of information. 80% of companies use Linkedin as the primary tool to find employees which indicates that social media has also changed the job seeking procedures. Social media plays a bigger role in this present world but on the negative side, it is replacing traditional methods of communication and interaction.
