The topic of this article is on the positive effects social media can have on people. Parrack's purpose is to explain the positive impact social media can have on us and how its grown to be such a big part of society and that it can no longer be ignored. Parrack discusses some examples of the positive impact social media can have on our lives such as building relationships and helping stay in touch with the world. There's no doubt that social media sites can lead to the breakup of a relationship, but social networking sites can also put you back in touch with someone you have lots in common with and maybe help you approach someone that you'd be to scared to do in person. It also helps you stay in touch with people across the world. When family members live in a different state they can still stay caught up in the events of your life. And you can stay in touch with childhood friends that have moved away. Social media allows people to express themselves without being face to face and have people emphasize with them and listen to what they have to say. Parrack concludes with agreeing that there are both positive and negative sides to social media. But he believes that when used in moderation, social networking sites are neither evil or a blessing, but that they're somewhere in between. This article added to the positive effects of social media that I mentioned in some of my other blog posts. In conclusion, social media can help improve society in many ways by helping track down criminals, help people in need, receive news from all over the world, and stay in touch and strengthen long distance relationships. This article is very useful for my blog because I think it's important to stay positive and look at the good side of things.
