How do you think social media will change in the future? What other trends would you add to the mix? Are they any specific technologies that you think will gain popularity or emerge?


Personally, I believe that social media will evolve into something that no one will live with out regardless if they like it or not. At this point in time social media is just a basic start but is continuing to grow at the speed of light. As more and more people see the popularity of social media, more people are using it as a tool to broadcast information. At the same time, technology will start to evolve to support the applications of the social media sites so they can run faster. Social media become more complicated to use but for sure there will be some sort of genius like always that will make it in a way for those who are less knowledgeable about technology to be able to figure it out. 

I think specific technologies that will evolve would be more of the portable devices such as Apple IPads, IPods, Blackberry’s, Samsung Androids and so on they would be more convent for people to carry around. Having Wi-Fi in every store, business or even medical building may become more noticeable in the future. Although most people already access the Internet on their phones through there data plans, they would be able to what ever they feel with out having to worry about if there signal is going to be slow, going over there data or even loosing reception

In Conclusion social media will change in ways that, as of now anyone can imagine. It will no doubt help us in the future but with great technology comes great issues. I hope that during the course of the evolution of social media they will fix every little issue out there

  1. I agree with your statements above especially the phrase “social media is just a basic start but is continuing to grow at the speed of light.” Your right our technology has made it easy for those of any age to use which is helpful for people to adapt. Although I don’t think in the future places will have need for Wi-Fi or data plans it might just become unlimited access for all. Yes as our technology advances we shall face problems however, I am positive that in the future that the minds of our new generations will grow and the issues that society will have to face will be resolved.

  2. Awesome post Jalaaludeen!
    I definitely agree with you, and I thought your comment about social media evolving into something people in the future will be unable to live without, very interesting. It's so true, whether they like it or not, it’s going to be inevitable that everyone uses it. Companies are using social media to stay connected, and even educational institutions are using social media to teach students. I also agree with your ideas about WiFi, I think it will definitely need to be accessible everywhere... and hopefully that happens soon!!

  3. I agree, Wi-Fi is definitely going to become more common place because let's face it people want to be online and they don't want to pay for it! I also agree with the issues. Technology has probably had more bugs and fixes than any other sub class because it's constantly evolving and the more we expect from it the better it has to perform.

  4. I also think they will fix signal and data issues! Cause lets face it, we are always on our mobile devices and or tablets so it is only a matter of time before they make it accessible everywhere. Which is great because doing business will be easier as well keeping up with out social lives.
