Social Media

Social media has been playing such an important role in this era. I believe everyone has some sort of social media account such as Facebook, Twitter and etc. Social media brought a lot of advantages to today's life. Nowadays, companies started to advertise their products on those social media website especially Facebook. People get to know the most updated news and products from their favorite companies. Both parties get to achieve their goals through just a page in Facebook. How convenient it is! Besides, social media had been helping me a lot. The reason is I get to keep in touch with all my family and friends at home in Malaysia and other countries. I get to talk and know how they are doing lately with just through a page of Facebook.

Of course social media also brings in some disadvantages. Social media provides so much of convenience to people. However, such convenience might bring in danger to someone and even reduce the privacy of a person.For instance, Facebook users love to check in where they are now. With this features, it actually allows someone else to know where you are and criminal might take this chance to rob your house or even doing something more severe to hurt you.

In conclusion, social media has its good and bad side. We as the users just need to use them with a more conscious and productive way.
