The introduction.

A Social media are computer-mediated technologies that facilitate the creation and sharing of information, ideas, career interests and other forms of expression via virtual communities and networks. The variety of stand-alone and built-in social media services currently available introduces challenges of definition; however, there are some common features:

• Social media are interactive Web 2.0 Internet-based applications.
• User-generated content, such as text posts or comments, digital photos or videos, and data generated through all online interactions, is the lifeblood of social media.
• Users create service-specific profiles for the website or app that are designed and maintained by the social media organization
• Social media facilitate the development of online social networks by connecting a user's profile with those of other individuals or groups.

Social media facilitate the development of online social networks by connecting a user's profile with those of other individuals or groups.

Users typically access social media services via web-based technologies on desktop, computers, and laptops, or download services that offer social media functionality to their mobile devices (e.g., smartphones and tablet computers). When engaging with these services, users can create highly interactive platforms through which individuals, communities and organizations can share, co-create, discuss, and modify user-generated content or pre-made content posted online. They introduce substantial and pervasive changes to communication between businesses, organizations, communities and individuals.Social media changes the way individuals and large organizations communicate. These changes are the focus of the emerging fields of technoself studies. Social media differ from paper-based media (e.g., magazines and newspapers) or traditional electronic media such as TV broadcasting in many ways, including quality, reach, frequency, interactivity, usability, immediacy, and permanence. Social media outlets operate in a dialogic transmission system (many sources to many receivers). This is in contrast to traditional media which operates under a monologic transmission model (one source to many receivers), such as a paper newspaper which is delivered to many subscribers, or a radio station which broadcasts the same programs to an entire city. Some of the most popular social media websites are BaiduTieba, Facebook (and its associated Facebook Messenger), Gab, Google+, MySpace, Instagram, LinkedIn, Pinterest, Tumblr, Twitter, Viber, VK, WeChat, Weibo, WhatsApp, Wikia, Snapchat and YouTube. These social media websites have more than 100,000,000 registered users.I choose this theme for discussion because It’s an  inalienable part of our modern life and I want to create a social media  for the  job seekers

2. How does social media affect teens?

It seems like the Internet just came out of nowhere and changed everything, including childhood. Whether this change has been for the better or worse depends on how you look at it.

Teens today are the first generation that cannot imagine life without the Internet and the various devices that connect us to it. Our electronic gadgets have become extensions of our bodies, like crutches. On the other hand, you might also say that these powerful tools give us wings. Some people believe that the Internet and its various social networking options affect us negatively while others beg to differ. Parents who cling to their pre-Internet way of life are scrambling to make sure they have the right answers to guide their kids.

Writers and researchers have flocked in to fuel the flames of this debate with rants and data (See footnotes below for studies and articles referred to here.) In this article, we'll explore both the advantages and disadvantages of the Internet and social networking for teenagers.

How Does Social Media Affect a Teen's Brain and their Overall Mental Health and Development?

Cons

• Writing posts and receiving positive reinforcement from peers can become addicting, which leads to children spending more and more time on the internet. According to The New York Times, kids from ages eight to 18 spend more than seven and a half hours a day on electronic devices. This has led to teens receiving insufficient sleep, which can further lead to developing a myriad of mental health issues such anxiety and increased irritability.
• Researchers have found that teens can actually show symptoms similar to drug withdrawal when removed from their social media connections.
• The urge to constantly record and share everything we experience actually has an impact on our brain activity. Psychologist MihalyCsikszentmihalyi says our brains enter into a state of relaxation and rest when we become absorbed in an activity. Our brains shift to alpha waves and this flow, as it is called, has been linked to learning and talent development. Stopping to take photos and make posts disrupts this flow. Teens get cut off from the experience of taking in their moments as they share them.

Pros

• The anonymous aspect of the online experience can have a positive impact as well. That anonymity makes it easier to find help for social problems online where there is no stigma attached. There are also strong social and mental benefits to online interactions when there are genuine connections and dialogue rather than flaunting a false persona and comparing lifestyles. Just having someone listen to you is noted as being a good way to raise confidence and self-esteem.
• There can be a benefit to the strong influence of the Internet. A teen may see positive traits being liked and shared, such as healthy eating or academic success. A teen may then be motivated to follow those trends. A look at theeffects of social media on teens highlights the fact that voter participation went up when people saw posts of their friends voting.
• In moderation, social networking can give teens more, not less, opportunities to "speak." Those who suffer from mental illness are often reluctant to speak to those close to them. The Internet can offer social relief and remove the sense of isolation.

What Causes People to Be Addicted to Social Media?

Researchers have found that social media use can make profound changes to the brain in similar ways that drug addiction can. A team of psychologists have found that receiving likes on the internet releases dopamine in the brain. This creates a sense of pleasure. Similar triggers for this experience includes eating chocolate or winning money.

Can Social Media Make You Depressed?

Recent studies have also shown a correlation between heavy screen-mediated communication and depression. As this is a relatively new phenomenon, multiple theories are still being studied on the impact on mental health. A strong theory out there is that individuals often compare themselves to others they see on social media. Teens typically put on their best face on social media and don't often share their struggles. Others will only see them in a perfect, idealistic view. This form ofInternet narcissism may make others feel inadequate about their own lives or body image. Even people sharing a perfect version of themselves can develop depression as they feel they can never live up to their online persona.

It must be said that the Internet may have the potential to fight depression. For shy people and introverts, the Internet can be a safe and controllable place to speak one's mind and develop high self-esteem. Those who feel marginalized can find a community of similar individuals and gain a sense of camaraderie. There can certainly be emotional support when a teen may not have such support in their own real lives.

What Are the Social Advantages and Disadvantages of the Internet?

Cons

• One of the most obvious negative aspects of social networking is losing face-to-face interactions with other people. Teens are sitting around with their gadgets in their hands all day long, tapping messages onto screens instead of communicating with real people. Many children feel more comfortable with virtual friends than with real ones. The majority think that it is easier to chat on Twitter because they lack communication skills.
• In his article The Effects of Social Media on Teenagers, Chris Crosby bemoans this negative impact on teenager's social skills and alludes to evidence to back it up. According to him, "Various reports suggest that about eighty-three percent of American youth use their phones for email, mobile internet, and texting [...] these American teens send and receive text messages 144 times a day. [...] Researchers have found that the middle-school, high school, and college students who used Facebook at least once during a 15-minute period get lower grades overall."

• According to clinical psychologist Dr. Catherine Steiner-Adair, the time teens are spending on texting and online communication means they are missing out on developing critical social skills. By communicating mostly through a media site, they are not learning how to read body language, facial expressions, or vocal inflections. They may not even be able to formulate a response in real time when interacting with people.
• Communicating through a screen also removes the more personal and intimidating aspects of human interaction. It's easier to keep your guard up with a text and you can't immediately see how your words are having an effect on someone. Some teens now say that talking over the phone is too intense because it is too direct. Anxiety over the basic act of talking can lead to problems later in life as social negotiations become more complex with romantic relationships and employment.
• This disconnect from personal interactions is believed to be responsible for the rise of cyberbullying. This form of bullying is seen as being easier to do because people do not see the reaction of their victims; there is seemingly no consequence for writing something online. The anonymity that the Internet can provide also makes cyberbullying easy and seems to actually embolden people to do it. Only 23 percent of people report that they have been cyberbullied by a complete stranger. The majority of harassers end up being friends or acquaintances.
• Peer pressure also takes on a new dimension on the Internet. A study at UCLA showed that the influence of others on social media can be very strong on teens despite online acquaintances being relative strangers. The study revealed that teens were more likely to like a photo that received many likes already. As the brain manifests itself to conform to the favor of others online, researchers believe this effect may be magnified in a teen's real life. They would want to be liked even more by people they actually know and care about. While peer pressure has always existed, teens were only previously able to use their judgement to read how others responded to them. Theynowhaveharddatawithlikes.
• Many parents often have no knowledge about what their kids do with their gadgets, oftentimes because they are new to—and perhaps not adept with—the social networking scene. Crosby says that, "While kids are plugged in to social media, only about 40% of parents are involved themselves." Because parents don't know the full picture, they also don't know how to deal with a teenager's potential overuse of social media. They might not even be aware that a problem like depression or bullying exists. Social networking can be immediately more engaging in a teenager's life than their parents are. This fact accentuates the illusion that virtual communication feels more real than face-to-face communication. Since the teenager and the parent live in different worlds, they both may experience feelings of disconnect.

Pros

However, shifting the focus of social connections to a device has its positives. In her piece describing the positive effects of social networking, Melissa Page cites eight.

1. It educates. There are answers to any question at your fingertips. You can connect with teachers, coaches, experts, and collaborate with peers.
2. It facilitates communication and gives access to real time understanding. This can help teens who are battling depression or feel marginalized in their community.
3. It breaks down physical, geographical, and cultural barriers. Even if you're in a wheelchair, you can make friends with Minnesotans, Nigerians, and even your favorite authors.
4. It strengthens relationships. You never have to lose touch with old friends. Who has time to write or wait for letters, anyway?
5. It helps people find and connect with their community. They can easily discover when, where, and what is happening and how they can participate.
6. It boosts confidence. Likes and nice comments are positive feedback. The impact of social media on self-confidence can be huge and this is a very positive one.
7. It can help fight depression. According to Page, "Recent studies show that many teenagers have not chosen the path of suicide, thanks to these tools. Blogging can be therapeutic for teens who are confused, down, or need to vent frustrations."

What Are the Effects of the Internet on Education?

Cons

• One look at a teenager's texts is enough to give any parent hard evidence that this online language they use could destroy everything they've learned in school as proper spelling, syntax, and grammar structures. They begin to speak these non-words and even slip them into their assignments for school. There is some concern that the line between formal and informal writing isbecoming blurred.
• In Negative Effects of Social Networking Sites for Students, Steve Armstrong writes, "Students today have begun to rely on the accessibility of information that is available on the social media platforms specifically as well as the web in general in order to get answers. This means that there is a reduced focus on learning as well as on retaining information."
• Many people—teenagers and adults alike—do not know that the Internet is not always a reliable source for information.
• Teens use their cellphones for social reasons during classes, and multitasking has become a major distraction in the classroom. A look at the effects of Facebook on teens highlights that many who frequently check their profiles have lower grades and lower reading retention.
• Many teens usually spend sleepless nights on social media without the knowledge of their parents. Thiscanleadtoloweracademicperformance.

Pros

On the other hand, there are many huge educational benefits when the Internet and social media are used wisely.

• Access to diverse online communities opens the floodgates of experience, information, and data. This allows students to develop more informed personal, political, and cultural outlooks. According to the Pew Research Center, 20% of social media users actually changed their stance on a topic when they encountered another viewpoint online.
• Kids without access to libraries or experts can be as well-informed as those with access to every educational resource. Teenagers have more access to dialogues about politics, religion, racism, sexism, and other cultural biases. Exposure to a wider variety of viewpoints—and weeding through that information to gauge what is relevant and reliable—requires that students think critically.
• In addition, students will need to be adept in modes of online communication since many professions utilize and require knowledge of the Internet and social media.
• Teens who can't attend a class for whatever reason can participate in online education (aka distance learning). They can go online to find a wide range of educational options that offer flexibility, oftentimes at little or no cost.

An article that criticizes the notion of smartphones destroying a generationhighlights how AP courses used Facebook to help students. Another article highlights how platforms like Twitter can keep students engaged in biology by having them create succinct explanations of lessons. At one middle school in Portland, Oregon, a teacher realized what a huge role the Internet played in her students' lives and decided that if you can't beat them, join them. Although 69% of American high schools have banned cellphones, her school didn't do that. Instead, they got every student's phone number and started calling habitually tardy kids to make sure they got to school on time. She started a social media program at her school. One year later, grades had gone up more than 50% school-wide, chronic absenteeism had been reduced by more than a third, and 20% more students were completing extra credit assignments.

So students' grades definitely suffer with unrestricted and unfocused use of the Internet and social media. But when schools embrace the Internet and social media and use them for educational purposes, everyone benefits.

Cons

• In order to get online, teens must make a relatively large investment in gadgetry. After you add up the costs of a cellphone, a personal computer, apps, data plans, and wifi hookups, you've run up a hefty bill.
• Teens who have last year's model of devices will feel pressured to measure up and spend more money, so add in the expensive social stigma attached to not having the latest and greatest gadgets.
• The influential nature of the Internet can possibly make teens more likely to spend by seeing ads or their friends posting what they buy.
• A bad social media reputation can hurt job opportunities. Many employers are now going through the profiles of candidates. Employers reported in a surveythat they have rejected candidates for inappropriate or discriminatory comments. Teens are known for lacking strong judgement or self-control as the part of the brain that controls impulse is still developing at that age. It is likely that their online presence may hurt them in their job search.

Pros

• There are certain economic benefits to be found online, especially in terms of flexible job opportunities. On sites like Slice the Pie, teenagers can rate music for pay. On sites like HubPages, they can write articles that can bring them money through revenue-sharing from advertisements and by using affiliate programs like Amazon. If you become a partner, YouTube pays for popular videos (the rate is around $1 per 1000 views).
• If a teenager finds work online, most online workplaces can pay via PayPal, one of the most reliable ways to spend and collect money online. Once a child is at least 13 years old, their parent can get them a PayPal account.
• The reality is that the modern workplace demands a strong emphasis on social media and online skills. According to Joseph Terach, founder and CEO of Resume Deli, a strong social media presence can be beneficial for job seekers as it can tell potential employers that you are savvy, have a personality, and can have good judgement. While there is a lot of content that can turn off employers, having no online presence gives the impression that you are hiding something or are not tech savvy.
• Social media has also given rise to the Internet celebrity. Regular people have found fame online by building a massive following through their social accounts with creativity and ingenuity. This has actually led to previously unknown people receiving endorsement deals and TV appearances.
• Teens can continue to learn how to work online and establish a professional reputation that will help them later in life.

In summary, social networking has both its good and bad sides. Depending on the user, it can reap great benefits or just be a waste of time.

No matter what you decide—whether the computer is a heavenly tool or the gateway to hell—your teens will probably be engaging online at some point and may be using it more than you know right now, even if you have told them not to. The Internet is ubiquitous now. It's in classrooms, libraries, and places of work, readily accessible by anyone with a device. Even if your kid doesn't have a cellphone, the kid sitting next to them does. No matter what barriers you put up between your teenager and the Internet, the digital world will eventually seep through the cracks. The Internet is now a common facilitator for social interaction.

Maybe the question isn't whether social media is good or bad, but how to keep the lines of dialogue open between you and your teenagers so you can help them negotiate through this digital universe. You must show them how to distinguish good from bad, quality from fluff, and fact from fiction. You have to teach them how to use these tools to their advantage.

3. 11 ways social media will evolve in the future

The 2016 election was a painful time for most Americans. It was so mentally strenuous that psychologists are still talking about post-election anxiety several months after Election Night.  And where did we process all that anxiety and frustration?

Why, Facebook and Twitter, of course. Some have even gone so far as to blame the results and tone of the election entirely on social media and the way real and fake information was shared.

Who among us isn’t still suffering aftershocks? Who doesn’t have strained relationships with friends and family after one too many political opinion posts? Who hasn’t been affected by use of the “delete” button? Social media, in its role as ground zero for viral political commentary, is invaluable, unavoidable, and exhausting.

But that’s not the only social media shift happening.

Demographics of social media are changing. Teens have been leaving Facebook in droves for years, and many can’t even be bothered to join because it’s what their parents use. In 2016, Facebook marked a 21 percent drop in original, personal updates as users have begun communicating more and more in shared articles and memes alone.

Privacy concerns are getting more pronounced as people become more aware of data harvesting, adding to previous concerns of identity theft.

Many in the industry are predicting massive changes as we move into the dramatically shifted post-election social media landscape. I recently interviewed Jeanne Lewis, CEO of Capsure, a new private social network for preserving memories, and she says, “Social media has really gotten away from us. It’s gotten to the point where we work for it, not the other way around. With social media as it’s been, the users are the product, which has caused some real rifts and problems between loved ones. It’s just not connecting us the way it was supposed to.”

Lewis isn't the only one who feels that way, but she’s something of an expert on the subject, and she had some excellent points on how social media will transform in 2017 and on.

1. A focus on relationships

One of the first social networks was Friendster, a name which implies its purpose: Forming and maintaining friendships. That was how MySpace and Facebook ostensibly began, as well. However, as they’ve progressed, they’ve become more about personal brand maintenance and attempts to form and join various short-lived zeitgeists.

“Social platforms today have evolved into a broadcast tool both for companies and individuals,” says Lewis. “While this is valuable when you have a broad announcement to share and want to reach as many people as possible, these are no longer the vehicles for sharing photos of your kids, recording audio or staying connected with your inner circle of family and friends."

To fix this, social media will probably begin to draw the focus back into relationships by emphasizing personal posts, photographs and small, intimate connections over outside content like memes and articles.

2. Diversity of personal posts

Until now, posts have been limited to outside material, pictures, videos and text. Don’t be surprised if, going forward, new players will introduce more diverse posting options, intermingling audio and visual components to create a unique experience for people viewing and creating posts. As digital technology progresses, people will be hungry for new and interesting ways to share experience.

Lewis emphasizes the importance audio will play in social media’s future: “Just as many of us gathered around a cassette recorder in our early childhood, the unique power of audio can be experienced once again using our smartphones.”

3. Users will pay for peace

Premium service will make a splash. This one sounds counterintuitive -- after all, who would pay for a social media experience when they’ve all been free up to this point. Two things will happen to change that previous wisdom. First, with a more personal, story-driven experience, customers will want high-quality images, videos and audio files stored for posterity. Second, having a place to escape constant advertisements will become very important, something a premium social media experience will offer.

“In order to ensure our digital memories are stored and preserved there should be a direct and clear relationship between compensation and the service provided,” says Lewis. “Otherwise, what assurance do users have?”

4. Different types of groups

Google Plus tried something like this before to little success, but spurred by the frustration caused by people seeing the wrong posts, social grouping will make a comeback. In the last political cycle, many relationships were tested unnecessarily when people felt attacked by never-ending political rants. If you don’t want Grandma to see your stances on gay marriage, put her in your non-political group. This will become very important for relationship maintenance.

“Context is everything,” says Lewis. “The person we are with our family is not necessarily the person we are with our college friends. Nevertheless, there’s a desire to stay connected with all of these groups but in a separate forum.”

5. Increased focus on privacy

Privacy concerns have plagued social media since its inception, and are only getting more pronounced. Expect future social media companies to offer more advanced network and profile privacy than ever before.

6. Less gamification

One of social media’s key components is that it’s highly addictive, even going so far as to be described as more addictive than cigarettes. New platforms will try to gear more toward long-term customer wellness as a feature by staving off more addictive qualities. They will focus more on the communal quality of social media rather than offer quick hits of serotonin from gratifying and frustrating outside content.

7. Legacy building

As has been said many times, the internet is written in ink. It cannot be erased, and in the future, people won’t want it to be. Users will want their social media to existing as an ongoing time capsule, a living record of their lives. Smart platform builders will realize posting shouldn't be a burst about a single moment in time, to be consumed in a few seconds and forgotten about immediately, but as a multi-faceted, interactive diary involving many writers, all telling pieces of their own and others’ stories.

“We’ve arrived at a place where we are as thoughtful about capturing a personal moment to preserve as we are about carefully curating our Instagram feed,” says Lewis. “It’s a question of the legacy you want to leave behind.  If someone has 2 hours to flip through your life’s journey, what do you want them to see?”

8. Open to experimentation

The main social media giants are slow, lumbering machines, resistant to change, and unbearably clumsy when they do change.

Future models will have seen platforms of the past try different things to different levels of success and will be open to explore. They will try out wildly different ways of managing contacts, befriending people, organizing interface layouts, etc. Facebook has had basically the same layout since its beginning -- don’t expect that to be the case with new platforms.

9. Mobile-native

A mammoth advantage new platforms will have is that they about after the smartphone became ubiquitous. Facebook and Twitter both came before they could really function on a mobile phone, but future platforms will be designed with phones in mind from the beginning.

No clumsy borrowing between web and phone platforms -- seamless integration. The future of the internet is mobile, so it stands to reason that mobile-native platforms will be built to last.

10. Build us up, don’t tear us down

The self care and heartfulness movements are big right now for a reason. In a world as chaotic and terrifying as ours, with such a constant barrage of information and stimuli, personal well-being is a thing we must actively pursue and maintain.

Family and friend communities have been part of humanity since there was humanity, and they’re there to build us up. Social media will begin to recognize that again.

11. Video, video, and more video

In late 2016, we saw a major development in social media video when Instagram release Instagram Stories and Instagram Live. Instagram's parent company Facebook also released Facebook Live and Messenger Day. The focus on the live format follows in the footsteps of Snapchat and Twitter's Periscope.

According to Jay Singh, CEO of PHL Venture Company, “We continue to see a shift toward live content that is composed through a camera. The camera keeps growing in importance and the ability to see through other people's lenses in real time is becoming a powerful force in social media."

The most recent political cycle has exposed a lot of what was rotten in social media, making us all so constantly aware of what is wrong with ourselves and others that we barely have space in our heads for anything other than frustration and anxiety.

If they’re smart, new social media platforms will understand that create a new kind of social networking -- a kind that actually feels like a personal asset instead of a detriment.

5.        Poem «The Internet addition»

I will dust off a cheap laptop,

And read the posts of the occupied top.

I will dip virtually into job search,

I seek to get a million from research.

For a long time, I don't believe the life is sweeting

And only events and the other meetings

But it's the different side in the social network.

And here with Putin I have a real talk

1. Maslyaeva)

Я сдую пыль с дешевого лептопа,

И зачитаю посты занятого топа.

Окунусь виртуально в поиск работы,

Стремлюсь получать миллион от кого-то.

Давно мне не кажется, что жизнь конфета,

А всего лишь событий бегущая лента.

Но по другому всё в соц.сетях,

Я депутат и Путин в друзьях.

(перевод А. Масляева)

6.        Social media website “Work Me”

How did Mark Zuckerberg change the world? He built a global community that brings people closer together. The origins of Facebook are available to the general public. Everyone is familiar with the story of building social network platform that will greatly impact human relations and economy. Mark's vision of community opened a door to many variations of social media network platforms that today exist. Jack Dorsey created Twitter in March 2006. Rome may not have been built in a day, but Twitter was built in just two weeks, says Jack.

A few years later Kevin Systrom and Mike Krieger built a pared - down photo app today known as Instagram.Facebook has now 2 billion monthly users, Twitter 328 million and Instagram 700 million worldwide users.

Mark did pave the way for many new social media networks. He got one brilliant idea that greatly impacted the humanity. However, other social media channels were created only because their CEOs were smart enough to recognize good opportunity at the right time. Facebook did all of the hard work and now building a social network website from scratch is a lot easier process than before. Nowadays, creating a social media network can be done quick by following certain unwritten rules and regulations.

The conclusion.

Social media is the collective of online communications channels dedicated to community-based input, interaction, content-sharing and collaboration.It  is  an excellent opportunity to discuss and communication

Websites and applications dedicated to forums, microblogging, social networking, social bookmarking, social curation, and wikis are among the different types of social media.

There are some popular social media websites:

Facebook is a popular free social networking website that allows registered users to create profiles, upload photos and video, send messages and keep in touch with friends, family and colleagues.

Twitter is a free microblogging service that allows registered members to broadcast short posts called tweets.

Google+ (pronounced Google plus) is Google's social networking project, designed to replicate the way people interact offline more closely than is the case in other social networking services.

Wikipedia is a free, open content online encyclopedia created through the collaborative effort of a community of users known as Wikipedians.

Pinterest is a social curation website for sharing and categorizing images found online.

Brian Solis created the following social media chart, known as the conversation prism, to categorize social sites and services into various types of social media.

Social media is becoming an integral part of life online as social websites and applications proliferate. Most traditional online media include social components, such as comment fields for users. In business, social media is used to market products, promote brands, connect to current customers and foster new business.

Social CRM (customer relationship marketing) can be a very powerful business tool. For example, establishing a Facebook page allows people who like your brand and the way you conduct business to Like your page, which creates a venue for communication, marketing and networking. Through social media sites, you can follow conversations about your brand for real-time market data and feedback.

From the customer’s perspective, social media makes it easy to tell a company and everyone else about their experiences with that company -- whether those experiences are good or bad.
