Social Media changing the World!
Can social networks change the world? Yes, they can, in the words of Barack Obama’s election campaign. That campaign itself provided evidence that the tools of “Web 2.0″
From my point of view, according to the link below states that in fact with in a couple of years, EVERYTHING will be socialized. It will be the main communication since texting on your normal cell phone. The fact that it has made such a HUGE impact on this world make you kinda think everyone needs a Facebook, Twitter, or even a MySpace. I recently discovered this when I saw how quickly the Government were making post while in the House of Reps? In my opinion, I am kinda glad that it has gotten to the point where people in Washington are sitting making Blogs, posts, tweets, and all other status updates on how they feel about what is going on in their life or at the moment. On the other hand to some, it could not be a good thing if you do not know how to utilize your time and completely write everything that is on your mind which can cause issues. I truly feel almost everyone will have some sort of account. whether its their publicist or them actually making the update. Social media is headed in a different direction and it is truly changing as time goes on.
