Social Media Insights from EAC Students

Ralph Kevin G. Sebastian spends most of his time on YouTube because it contains necessary information and entertainment that he needs daily, such as lessons on topics and gaming videos. He first learned to navigate the internet independently around 2010 when he created his first Facebook account. He believes that social media has done more good than bad by allowing faster communication than before and providing daily information. One vital advantage is that social media, like Wikipedia, is a source of up-to-date information. While he could imagine living without social media since he did so as a child, it would be very difficult to cope without it now.

ANSWER:
1. I probably spent most of my time on YouTube. Because, YouTube contains all the necessary in
formation and also entertainment which I need in my day-to-day basis. For example, when I want
to watch a lesson regarding on a particular topic, in order for me to refresh my mind I would watch
that, and if I’m bored, and I want to watch some video games, I would find it on the YouTube
gaming section.
2. I think my I first surfed the web on 2010, because that is the time when I first created my
Facebook account.
3. I think social media has done better than bad in our lives, because it gives us communication
faster than ever before, before you can receive a letter (which is a way to communicate before) 1-
2months after they had sent the message. But now, it only gives us a second to receive a
message. Also, social media gives us the information which we can receive in our day-to-day
basis.
4. Social media gives us information, social media has undoubtedly been a source of information for
all of us, one of the good examples of social media giving us information is Wikipedia. Wikipedia
is a source of information for all of us, it contains the necessary information just like an
encyclopedia. Another thing is whenever a flash report breaks in, then the journalist will write on
their social media platforms, like facebook, twitter, etc, to inform us what is going on.
5. I think I can imagine myself without the presence of social media platform, because in my
childhood, social media isn’t recognized and I think I can remember clearly how to operate
without social media. But of course, it is very hard to cope without social media.
