A World Without Social Media – Parker H

People these days have it easy, they look at their phone or computer and see what’s going on today, what the new hot topic is, or just talking to your friend over snapchat finding out what to do. But lets say all that never happened and what your reading here wasn’t a thing. No more Twitter, Instagram, Snapchat, Facebook, and even Youtube. So what that means is that you would have to make the time to contact or meet up with friends and family for a catch up instead of relying on social media.

These sites make us feel so involved in other people’s lives that we often forget to actually make the time to see them, which can impact upon the kind of relationship you have.

You would need to sit and listen to experiences and look at photos at someone else’s pace rather than your own. With social media you decide which statuses you want to read and comment on and which photos you look at and like.  Without social media you’d have to go back to the days where someone else is showing you their photos and telling you all about their life, whether you like it or not.
