Social Media - is it for the better ?



Tonight as I surrounded myself with my usual gadgets after dinner ( eg telly , laptop and etc ) I found myself wondering what life was like before all these gadgets were part of every life.   Before social media people had to either call, email or meet up to catch up on their lives…  Now the ‘catch up’ is often replaced by checking the news feed in facebook.  

Do people still swing by each other’s places for coffee after dinner?  Do people still flip through catalogues in the junk mail instead of looking things up online ?  I still remember the days when bullying was only something which happened on the play ground…  Has social media really improved our lives for the better?
