How has Social Media changed our lives?

This is a topic which many people are talking about. Social Media now is in our daily routine, that is why we decided to share with you some of the aspects in which it has more impact. 
Social Media was not common in the past, so does it change our behaviors nowadays? The answer is yes; even if you are not a ''Social Media lover''.

Media

We were accustomed to just read the newspaper, and watch TV, and share the comments with our family but now we can go further than just comments in our houses. Now when we want to share an opinion we go to our Facebook or Twitter account and we can discuss with people from other countries and different thoughts. You can say whatever you want, Social Media is not going to restrict your mentality. Some people say ''Social Media holds whatever you add on it''. 

Relationships 

Relationships are changing, and media has being changing the way in which we used to get to know people. Now people meet each other by Social Networks. Besides it is very common that people start talking by Facebook's chat and they share their phone numbers and talk by Whatsapp. Friendships and relationships are not the same with Social Media, or do you think that in the past was too easy to send the photo of your boyfriend to your friend that is traveling? Or to take a screenshot and send it in seconds? Well, that daily activities were not part of old relationships. 

Studies 

Learning processes now are totally different, if you go to a school you are going to find out that they have computers for each student and they can access to internet, also most of them know more about technology than older people, Why? Well it is because if you travel to the past you are not going to see people learning how to use computers, on the other hand you are going to see people reading books and very big books. However it took a lot of time for students to finish each book, that means that now they have more opportunities to find information faster and specific topics. 


Photos

Do you remember when you were a child and your family used to get together in order to see the familiar album? Well, perhaps you have a lot of time without do that because with Social Media nowadays is more common to see the last photo of the new born of the family on Facebook or the wedding of your cousin, What a nice dress! Or, am I wrong? With technology we are missing that family reunion. However it is not bad at all, because now you have extra copies of all your photos and if someone is so far from you he is going to be able to see your baby in just seconds. 


There are more aspects in which Social Media has changed our lives, but for me those are the most common. If you think that there are more just give us your opinion.
