Social media, worth loving

'Social' the word is so tightly fastened to us from the very primitive age that in my view this is most oldest thing we are carrying with us till now.
The meanings of the word are different for everyone that i wonder how firmly one can define 'social' word so easily at wikipedia. But I hope those are the writers own thoughts not a rigid fact.
For me social media is like a coin whose at one side you have information regarding the value of the coin on the other side it's who, about whom everyone has their own views some bad some morose. At the value side you have some rigid facts you can never deny those, on the other hand you are free to put your own thoughts regarding information actually it varies.

Social-ness comes out from our socialities, now it's up to us how we define our socialities. One of my friends who is an art student loves surrounded by drawings, sculptures and all those amorphous things which even don't have any sense for me. He rarely likes social gatherings and noise. It's his sociality.
On the other hand my room-mate for whom a day without a social gathering just like a waste. No age limits, no friend circle barrier matters him. Facebook and twitter like social pubs are the vital part of his life.
For my uncle who is a businessman every social gathering are where you have a chance to discuss about your plans, your business, your work no more than it.
and so on. These are few examples in my life where I see how people define their social life according to them but one thing I like most is, there is no place for religion in their social life at all. So as the social media. As the economy revolutionizing, world changing so swiftly, technology changing it's side social media emerging like a super start.what used to build brands and business once is not what builds them now.

One can certainly wonder how it's happening at lightning speed, I think it's because you don’t have to choose sides, social media is not a 'Religion'. Everyday alternate day I find myself with a new startup advocating it to be something different from the recent ones, with a bright idea, molded into a social jar which will serve its users full comfort with lots of apps icing on the cake but I would simply say I love this non religionist. We already have a very vast lend for religion, cast, gender, colour altercation, but this digital world is not that vast. Keep it noise free. We certainly have much more reasons to love this social media but as I said it's not a rigid fact, this is the reason why I love social media.

You say what makes YOU love 'Social Media'.

Cheers !!

Do you have problems ?

It's so long wrote here, but yeah I am here to write something just popped up in my mind. Do you have problem ? 0_o

Ohh.. no no I am not asking you, it's just a question my teacher friends, my teachers, my colleague used to ask me. Yeah it really funny but it's true. But why did they do so ? I asked them too, and the reply was "you ask a lot of questions" and I asked is there anything wrong in this ? What if I ask questions ? Actually asking questions doesn't always implies you are big dumbo, but that you can not always know each and everything. Problem is not you are asking a lot of questions, problem is that you are not being answered appropriately. And yeah here that's the problem.

Problem never comes alone. Problem is generated by questions which is generated by an idea. The idea which is not being discussed yet, the idea which is not being excecuted yet. So the questions are obvious. But ideas get excecuted only when you have power to question. But to whom ? To yourself, to your surroundings ...

I have six men which do it for me (yeah it's really tough job for single :D) These are What, Why, When, Where, How and Who. Really hardworking team which only works for you 24x7. If I have any idea I just consult with them and they churn out the idea. Churning out idea is not only the job, analysing the problem is on the basis of questions is the main job. If you can analysis the problem accurately you are done. And that's the step where most of tumble down even me. Analysing the problem in both positive and negative way can help you to judge the problem at a very extent.
I give you an example,
one day I went to a xerox shop for some papers to get xeroxed. I saw a man sitting there at shop and dictating a Hindi written document in his hand to the typist, who can type in Hindi very conveniently. As a get my document xeroxed I saw the man was done with the document typed in Hindi and was handing the typist a not of Rs. 50. The document was hardly of two pages. I met the man outside the xerox shop and asked how can you pay Rs. 50 for just one page of document typing. The man glared at me as if I have asked him about his asset. He replied so what should I do. I don't know how to type in Hindi, so I get it typed and according to shop tariff it cost Rs. 50. I remained silent. Not because I hadn't any reply what he said, but I it was a normal problem, which generated an unanswered question for me.
Why the man do not know how to type in Hindi ?
What if the man do not know how to type in Hindi, is this a big crime ?
and so on.

Surely I am not the first person facing these type of questions. May be the person is the first one who developed google transliteration service. A service which just demands from you the ability to type. Translation is purely handled by the service. See again it's a problem that generated a question, which further genearated an Idea and it leaded a nice service.

That was a very trivial problem, but solution only incured when someone had questioned to someone else about it and thoughts flowed. We see several of these types of instances daily but never pay atttention to these issues or I should say never question about these.

So moral of the story is simple that

"We question not because we don't know about the fact, but we want the thoughts to flow and ideas to collaborate for humainity."

So I again ask you , Do you have any problem ? Lets discuss ! :)

Cheers !
