Before the dawn of social media, people used to meet each other a lot - sharing their happiness and pain, gossiping, sending letters, and telegraphs. They were having an intimate bond with people at that time. And, today it is no different- it just shifts from real-life connections to virtual ones!!

Here, people find, discuss, and share ideas or opinions on various topics. e.g. Reddit, Quora, and Stackoverflow.

Bookmarking And Content Curation Networks: It discovers, saves, and shares new and trending content. e.g. Pinterest, Flipboard. • Consumer Review Networks: It finds, reviews, and shares information about brands, services, and products. e.g. Zomato, Yelp, and TripAdvisor • Blogging And Publishing Networks: It publishes, discovers, and comments on content. e.g. Medium & PhotoBlog • Social Shopping Networks: It spot trends, follow brands, share great finds, and make purchases.e.g. Fancy, Shopcade, Flerika

  10. Social Trends To Analyze Every single day, the Information Technology sector is evolving and it is impacting each and every arena of our life. And, evolution is the law of nature.According to Statista, the number of active social media users has increased from 0.97 billion in 2010 to 3.03 billion users in 2020. So, this evolution demands solid changes. And, here are the social trends which we can not think of ignoring:

  11. Communal Messaging: In this era, social messaging is a boon for brands to directly communicate with their prospective customers. There are instant messaging features- exactly the one which is required. • Stories Aren't Slowing Down: People are looking for a genuine connection - a connection that is more focussed at your personal level. For instance, Snapchat introduced the feature of sharing stories. Now, it has become so popular that other platforms like Instagram have also started using it. People feel encouraged when receiving feedback from their family and friends regarding their stories. • Social Commerce: This is indeed a new feature for you!! You know Snapchat, Instagram, and even Facebook is planning to launch a payment option in their apps. Here they will provide a "$" sign. By clicking on this you can go for P2P transfer. It means peer to peer or person to person transfer at one click.

  12. Dynamic Selling: Businesses are well aware of the fact that social media is a goldmine for their business. They leave no stone unturned to sell their services through social media platforms. Privacy Is Respected: The majority of the social media apps follow this rule of having a status disappearing within an hour, a couple of hours, or a day. This adds a sense of urgency and intimacy to the posts shared with friends. For instance, Snapchat and Instagram stories can also be labeled as "self-destructing content". Video Content Continues To Boom: Video content is the new era's demand. Facebook lives, Instagram lives and reels, Youtube videos, and exclusive video content streaming on apps like Netflix are a breath of fresh air for today's generation.
