I zipped up my sweatshirt as another train zoomed by. It was two in the morning, I couldn’t stop wondering why I wasn’t at home in my warm comfortable bed. I had thought about riding a train back home but there’s a lot of weird people who ride the subway at this hour. Another train zoomed past and I leapt on top, gripping one of the safety rails that hung off the side. The wind whipped through my hair as the train sped down the long dark tunnel. I closed my eyes against the whipping wind, pressing myself closer to the roof of the train.

Most of us are online in some way and are always connected. As time goes on I see us getting more addicted and dependant on our cell phones. From a sociological perspective, these phones are basically our way to the universe. Each individual that uses it is connected to hundred of millions of other individuals and together we make up the online social world. I chose to give up all social media. This includes instagram, twitter, tumblr, facebook, and snapchat. Social media is meant to connect us together but instead it disconnects us by having addicting features,

The fast paced evolution of social media and social networking has required businesses to quickly adapt to avoid falling behind their competition and their customers.

The social network theory explains these connections as ties, and individual users as nodes. The more ties, or relationships, online that you have the more social capital you can accumulate. Social capital can come in the form of likes, shares, posts, photos, and anything that you can gain from social media applications. Social connection websites, multimedia sharing websites and professional social networks assist in the construction of users identities through social media sites like Facebook, YouTube and LinkedIn. With these identities individuals are able to successfully interact within such social networks in ways in which have changed social statuses, impacted the overall health of individuals and created new opportunities for users.

Lachapelle (2011) explains, “The use of social media and social networking has become a significant force in political organizing, social interaction, and economic development. A growing body of literature now describes the use of social media as a tool in areas such as political action, democracy promotion, business marketing, and public relations management. The use of social media specifically in the field of community and economic development has also recently begun to receive scholarly attention. There is strong evidence to suggest that social networks can improve socioeconomic well-being of communities. For example, Eagle, Macy, & Claxton (2010) found the structure of social networks and related diversity of individuals‟ relationships is strongly correlated with the economic development of communities” (Para, 1, 2, & 3). This essay will discuss possible solutions that could help communities provide greater access to broadband internet, why citizens need internet access, and how it would enhance community development, Also, what government services could be transmitted to citizens through the Internet, and last, how social networking sites are an effective mechanism for communities to link citizens and encourage community development.

Technology in terms of social networking plays a vital role in maintaining a long-distance relationship. A research in the Cyber Psychology, Behavior, and Social Networking compared the role of Social Networking Site in a long-distance romantic relationship (LDRR) and in a geographically close romantic relationship (GCRR). The authors came to a conclusion that “Individuals in LDRR were more likely than individuals in GCRR to use SNS for relationship maintenance by using SNS to express their involvement and to gauge their partner’s involvement… For LDRR couples, because of a lack of physical and social means to perform and experience relationship maintenance processes, the findings suggest that SNS is an important alternative” (Billedo et

Have you ever heard of the contagious disease called social networking. Once you get a glimpse of any of the social media websites, you’re pretty much creating a custom made trashcan to throw your education in, a fire to burn your job into ashes, and the list goes on. Social networking is used in a way where students’ education is second from their list next to staying updated in friends, family, and even strangers’ life. With these habits developed, they bring it into their jobs like Mcdonalds or Burger King, if they’re lucky to get a job there. Now these days, all I hear from people around me talking about the most ridiculous news ever. When I hear these stories, I ask myself, “What happened to spending time on homework and studying or doing the job that was assigned to them? They pretty much said they did 24 hours worth of research on rumors about a person on social networking sites. Why?” It 's available around the world from places from the bathroom to the beach, but people are forgetting to look at how social media is changing and shaping their life in a dangerous way. I believe social networking is not beneficial and is used around the world for the wrongest reasons; hence the most reliable choice to make is to stay away or not use it at all.

Online forms of communications, like social media, have undoubtedly provided convenient methods to communicate with anyone at any moment. Adolescents have been reported to spend on average six hours consuming media (Wallace). The point when an unhealthy amount of time is spent on social media is when negative social risks can begin to present themselves—children and adolescents, who are experience significant brain growth and development, are the most at risk for social damage. Heidi, a thirteen-year-old girl previously described as a happy, sweet, and loving girl, screams “I’m going to kill you while you are both asleep” as she flails and kicks her father before biting his arm. This was Heidi’s second violent rage in a week because her parents took away her access to social media; this would also be the second time that she would be taken to a psychiatric emergency room (Kardaras). Heidi is one adolescent who has crossed the line of healthy social media usage and now has moved towards risks likes anxiety and depression, social media dependency, and inadequate social skills.

It is a common notion that we, as a society, have become polarized and that the social media is to blame for it. Some scholars argue that the internet provides numerous sources of information thus enhancing our understanding of issues and tempering our views. We, as humans, also engage in behaviors such as homophily and biased assimilation which have been found to encourage polarizing behavior. This paper tries to explore if polarization is a consequence of informed deliberation or just a result of group dynamics.

From stone carvings, to smoke signals, to letters, to books, to carrier pigeons, to telegraphs, to telephones, to fax machines. Communication has always been morphing to drastically more efficient ways of reaching out to other humans. Always looking for a more efficient ways to spread information, there are newspapers, magazines, almanacs, radios, televisions, and in the past few decades, the internet. According to History.com, in 1965, the first connection between two computers was made, and many advances occurred until the web we know today was birthed in 1991 by a swiss man named Tim Berners-Lee. This is when the world wide web, that WWW that appears on almost every URL, began to take shape, and where people could access an array of information. The internet seems to be the culmination of all these social media communication inventions. There are online radio stations, online magazines, online newspapers, Television services, telephone services, and many different new forms of information transfer are being implemented. The internet seems to be capable of absorbing all the functions and purposes of the social media that came before it and still has room for more. Online video games and different variations of websites can create and provide people with social groups that give structure and support.
