In the video I posted above, it informs us about the social media revolution and how it is changing our society. For example, now 1 in 5 relationships start online. People are being to communicate on social media sites and forming relationships from them. Also, more people are able to get jobs by using websites such as Linkedin. Social media is now a huge component when it comes to marketing. Businesses now use Facebook and Twitter to advertise their product and hope consumers will spread their reviews to their friends. From all the facts and statistics in this video, you can conclude that social media is changing our world at a rapid pace. I think it is a good thing that we can now form relationships and get jobs all online. If this is what the social media revolution is like now, I wonder what it will be like in 5 years.

I found this webpage on Northeastern University news about three questions regarding social media and a professor from the school answered them. The questions were asking if we were dependent on digital media, how digital technology and social networks affect our social skills, and what her prediction on how social networks would shape our society.
 I thought her answers to the questions were really insightful and made me look at social media in a different way. One thing I disagree on in one of her responses is that she says we become more social if we use social media sites, but I do not think so. I think that social media sites are causing us to not talk to people face to face and lead us to communicate behind a computer screen.
