Everyone is connected to one another in this vast network generated by Internet. Communicating and free sharing of your thoughts among people with different nationality, religion, and all of the people outside the community. Social networks are created by websites such as Facebook, Twitter, Instagram, YouTube, etc. ,which has emerged as a giant communication in this social world. Social networks play a very important role in our lives it keeps us on touch on our friends, family, and even others. It can be a great medium for communication and information updates.

But many companies fail to understand how to best connect with future generations that's because the world is still money obssed and puts financial gains over lifestyle happiness.Social media tools are designed to be highly addicted it's like a drug, we think getting fix will help but it's actually make us feels worse. We spend a large portion of our day connecting online but what's happen that attention economy is raise for this attention got more and more competitive the more competitive we get the more we are being addicted and sometimes we don't realized that we are being programmed. 

We really care on how people will look on us, we compare ourselves to others in every single day. As said by Professor S.  Shyam Sunder, a renowned researcher at Penn State "The types of actions users take and the kinds of information they are adding to their profiles are a reflection of their identities".  Many students love to spend time socializing and social media provide them to do whatever they want like uploading a pictures of them, spend an hour talking to friends through chat, make new friends and comments on the lives of different people and are largely influenced by what is post by other people on their profile or timeline. Sometimes it may affect our performance on our school but it should not be hamper and it should be kept in our mind that social networking create virtual worlds that differ from reality.
