The Real Power Of Social Media
Most people already know that social media is powerful. But do you know how powerful social media is?
We know that social media has allowed us to communicate with one another on a never-before-seen scale. We’re able to reach people all around the world in an instant.
The truth is, the real power of social media doesn’t lie in how much we can connect with one another, but in how well we can connect with one another.
In the past, we had to send mail, or call from a telephone. It would take time to reach someone and sometimes we could never reach them at all.
It made things more exciting in a way, sure, but where the real excitement lies for me is how today’s technology has allowed us to use our phones to be in multiple places at once.
It’s true, with the power of social media and modern telecommunication we’re able to talk to hundreds(even thousands or millions) of people at one time, without even moving.
People from around the world can tune in from their phones, whether they’re in Dubai or Timbuktu. And they don’t even have to move either!
We live in a world where not only we can connect with one another from huge distances almost instantly, but it takes us almost no personal human energy.
If you want to talk about a good investment, the negative aspects of hyperconnectedness aside, talk about how social media and technology have saved us time and energy — a direction which is bound to help humanity reach its goals faster.
