Question

In 100 words how would life be without social media and communication technology

Answer 1

Answer:

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 could actually avoid people you don’t want to speak to or see, people like old school friends that you have no desire to keep in touch with. Instead of receiving an uncomfortable friend request from someone you don’t like on a social media site and feeling obliged to accept it and allow them back into your life. There would be an air of mystery. Now when you meet someone you can look at their social media sites and pretty much know most things about them.  Without social media sites there would be more mystery and you would have to form your own opinion of them from your experiences.

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 sites 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.
