Social Networking Sites and our lives
क्या वाकई … सोशल नेट वर्किंग साईटस ही हमें अनसोशल बना रही है.. सबसे ज्यादा सवालिया निशान टवीटर पर उठ रहे हैं कम से कम शब्दों मॆं अपशब्दों का इस्तेमाल करते हुए किस तरह से किसका अपमान किया जाए उसका मजाक बनाया जाए ….कही न कही हमारे दिलो दिमाग पर हावी होता जा रहा है … बेशक,कुछ बातों मे टवीटर अच्छा भी होगा पर फिर भी प्रश्न यही खडा होता है कि कैसे बचे इससे और कैसे बचाए …!!
Another case of child abuse goes viral on social networking sites | Dhaka Tribune
Corporal punishment against two girls at an orphanage run by Social Welfare Directorate in Barisal has caused uproar among the public after its footage went viral on social networking sites.
Although the incident took place on July 4, the district administration became aware of it after the footage went viral.

The Evolving Role of News on Twitter and Facebook | Pew Research Center
The share of Americans for whom Twitter and Facebook serve as a source of news is continuing to rise. This rise comes primarily from more current users encountering news there rather than large increases in the user base overall, according to findings from a new survey. The report also finds that users turn to each of these prominent social networks to fulfill different types of information needs.
The new study, conducted by Pew Research Center in association with the John S. and James L. Knight Foundation, finds that clear majorities of Twitter (63%) and Facebook users (63%) now say each platform serves as a source for news about events and issues outside the realm of friends and family. That share has increased substantially from 2013, when about half of users (52% of Twitter users, 47% of Facebook users) said they got news from the social platforms.
Although both social networks have the same portion of users getting news on these sites, there are significant differences in their potential news distribution strengths. The proportion of users who say they follow breaking news on Twitter, for example, is nearly twice as high as those who say they do so on Facebook (59% vs. 31%) – lending support, perhaps, to the view that Twitter’s great strength is providing as-it-happens coverage and commentary on live events.
