-Social media is a double edged sword. We use social media in our daily life to look at daily news, communicate with others online and also as a source of entertainment through content posted by other users. However, we still have to be aware of scams while surfing social media as we can lose a lot of money or have our reputation ruined if they gain access to our social media accounts through these scams that use digital means to deceive people.
-Many people can also use social media as a source of income as they can generate revenue from videos posted on the internet. This could greatly help those with financial problems. On the other hand, if not careful, people could fall prey to scams or hackers. This could cause them to lose everything they have worked for, mostly being money.

At this point, social media has had such a huge impact on society that it seems like people couldn’t live without it.

Social media can transform our lives by making things more fun. For example, certain videos would be more fun to view due to the VR effect, allowing users to have a 360° view of the videos, making the videos or posts more realistic. We also get to better experience what the video creator wanted to show.

By using the metaverse to view videos, we can capture more details than just a fixed footage of a video, and we can also fit our perspectives and focus onto whatever we want, and also saves our money from needing to travel in order to see things. This may also allow us to do many other things, such as interact with others who are viewing the same video, and even talk to them.

This can change our lives as we will have a wider perspective of whats going on in the videos, immersing ourselves in it. However, this video sharing website may cause too much fun, leading to addiction and procrastination. Some may spend hours on sites like these, exploring new spaces through a different perspective from the average computer screen. ]]> 2023-01-09 06:21:14 UTC https://padlet.com/chew_hui_leng_faith/3E2SM/wish/2437311169 grp 4 (aizzul, ethan, hazim, hirdik): The next big app muhammad_aizzul_muhammad_alfian https://padlet.com/chew_hui_leng_faith/3E2SM/wish/2437311222 An app interface that is meant for convenient communication.

q1: we know that social media is a boon or a bane. it can be bad for us because we are prone to scams and cyber bullying. as majority of the people in this world are on social media, there is a higher risk of being exposed to the bad influence online. With the popular games on a rise, gaming addiction is likely to rise, resulting in lack of sleep and etc. In contrast, social media allows us to be more informed about the news going on around the world, which keeps us updated about everything which is happening. Another bane of social media is that people can easily communicate and connect with others globally, however, this can be dangerous as people with bad intentions can misuse it as an opportunity to cause harm to others.

q2: 2 question we have about social media is:
- why do people misuse social media?
- how can we use social media effectively and positively?

q3: we can ask our friends and family on any queries or research online and ask our best friend google!

In conclusion: Social Media has changed our lives by making it so much more convenient in ways a world with no technology could have ever benefit from. However, where there are pros, there are cons too. Social media can negatively impact one's health and whole life.]]> 2023-01-09 06:31:01 UTC https://padlet.com/chew_hui_leng_faith/3E2SM/wish/2437318997 The term meme was introduced in 1976 by British evolutionary biologist Richard Dawkins. He conceived of memes as the cultural parallel to biological genes and considered them as being in control of their own reproduction. supercgg2 https://padlet.com/chew_hui_leng_faith/3E2SM/wish/2437319426 2023-01-09 06:31:36 UTC https://padlet.com/chew_hui_leng_faith/3E2SM/wish/2437319426 group 5 Javien, Lee Yuan, Chung Yau, Joshua https://padlet.com/chew_hui_leng_faith/3E2SM/wish/2439350577 We don't have to try so hard to look for information and as such it lets us access information easier. It also lets us know what is going on around the world, as such we can be more aware and do things better. In social media, social means to communicate with other people and make more friends, while media means the news and entertainment that is being out up on the internet, so, social media means to communicate and socialize online through the internet.
I think that social media also means that people can interact and do things more efficiently on social media. The platforms inclueed on social media can help us to accomplish things and may sometimes even save lives! The 9/11 and 995 hotline can help the hospitals and policemen be aware of things that may be happening close by, which in turn would help to save lives as they can arrive faster to the scene. It can also help us work more efficiently as it can allow us to communicate with better with others and may even help us secure business prospects that are in favour to us.]]> 2023-01-10 14:04:57 UTC https://padlet.com/chew_hui_leng_faith/3E2SM/wish/2439350577 ChatGPT supercgg2 https://padlet.com/chew_hui_leng_faith/3E2SM/wish/2440156033 Social media refers to websites and mobile applications that allow users to create and share content or to participate in social networking. Examples of social media include Facebook, Twitter, Instagram, and LinkedIn.

Some common features of social media platforms include the ability to create a personal profile, post updates or status messages, share photos and videos, and interact with other users by commenting, liking or direct messaging. Social media can be used for a variety of purposes, such as staying in touch with friends and family, networking professionally, and following news and current events.

From my understanding, people know that social media is a platform for communication, for business and for entertainment, also is a way of connecting with others, keeping in touch with friends, following the news, and more, but the knowledge of how the behind works, the influence on the society, the influence on people's behavior and personality, how it affects the economy and how data is managed on social media are some of the questions that people might have.

Exploring these questions can involve a variety of methods, including conducting research studies, reading articles and reports, interviewing experts in the field, or analyzing data from social media platforms.

One way to explore the impact of social media on society is to conduct surveys or interviews with users to understand how they use the platforms and what effects they perceive them to have on their lives. Another approach could be to study social media data to understand patterns of usage and engagement, as well as to examine the spread of information and misinformation on these platforms.

Another important aspect to explore is how social media companies use and manage user data. Reading through the terms of service and privacy policy can provide a basic understanding, but to fully understand how user data is collected, used, and shared, it could be helpful to interview experts in the field or read academic research.

Moreover, There's also a growing concern on the relationship between social media usage and mental health, it is possible to conduct research to explore the relationship between social media use and mental well-being, looking at factors such as the frequency of use, the types of activities engaged in on social media, and the perceived impact of social media on users' moods and self-esteem.

Finally, the role of social media in political and social movements and in shaping public opinion is an area that could be worth exploring, for example, by analyzing the spread of hashtags or other digital content related to specific issues or by studying how political candidates and campaigns use social media to reach voters.

Overall, social media is a complex and multifaceted phenomenon that can be approached from many different angles. Understanding what social media is and how it affects individuals, society, and the world requires a combination of different research methods and perspectives.
