Has Social Media and mobile phones improved your life ? Do you work more often ? are you expected to be available ?

Not to long ago -  Once you walked out of the office your day was done. 

When I was going to meet someone and they were late - I had to wait or go.

If you wanted to speak to you parents - you had to find a pay phone.

 

Friends were made though meeting at places not Facebook

Meeting people to out with like a meeting a new boyfriend or girlfriend had to be a real meeting. Physically meet.

 

I am interested in How this has impacted on you. Have you grown up with this - or have you grown up as this evolves around you.

Yes, when your families are overseas you can communicate to them anytime you want. In terms of work sometimes it helps but mostly not. In work we need to focus on our workplace for the betterment of company, the company hired you to help them expand their business so that they will hire and help other people to work.

Social media not limited to Facebook or Twitter, there is LinkedIn where you can connect yourself with professionals, not only helpful in career search but to learn from the experience of different people globally. Cell phones made communication so easy, everything have positive and negative impact, it depends on their use.

Thanks to invite.

Of course Yes, it can vary from user to user ! How any individual try to avail benefits of this media. I don't want to be engaged myself with my work for round the clock, but if the requirement is too urgent than I have to be responsible and must pay attention. It is the best source of quick contact.
