Influence of networking sites on lifestyle: Social networking sites have some or the other sort of influence

on the lifestyle of the Youth.

Youth have got addicted to the networking sites and use them more often and as such their life is completely influenced by these.

People find it trendy to use these networking sites and being a member of the sites is considered trendy and in vogue thing.

Some people surf these sites to interact with people with similar preferences and it helps in their decision-making ability.

They take the views and suggestions of the people before taking any such decisions and feel quite comfortable with it.

Some people get knowledge about latest trends in fashion, electronic gadgets etc.

The most staggering influence of these networking sites for some people is the use of abbreviated words like ‘d’ for ‘the’ and likewise.

Some people use abusive words to vent out their feelings on these networking sites and the same has been seen in their personal life of late.

Certain people often use communities to dishonour their teachers and bosses or use bad-mouthing words for even celebrities and sports stars.

Negative/bad experience from networking sites:

The verification of genuine identity of the people is a problem. People pose as someone else and tend to seek personal or

confidential knowledge. This has led to breach of trust of a section of respondents.

Communities targeted to humiliate one or the other .Communities like “I hate Muslims” or “I hate Hindus” have created differences among the people .

Some community had an Indian flag burning which shook the entire users of India and the national sentiments as a whole.

Killing of the King’s English• INSTEAD OF TALKING, PEOPLE CHAT, NO PUNCTUATION, NO

GRAMMAR: LOL THIS AND LMFAO THAT.• THERE IS A VIRTUAL CULT OF CONCISION AND LITTLE INTEREST IN

CAPITALISATION OR PUNCTUATION.• WRITING IS A TOOL WHICH IS VERY DIFFERENT FROM THE TALKING• WHILE TALK IS LARGELY SUBCONSCIOUS AND RAPID, WRITING IS

DELIBERATE AND SLOW. OVER TIME, WRITERS TOOK ADVANTAGE OF THIS AND STARTED CRAFTING SENTENCES AS THIS ONE BY CHARLES KURALT :

• “THERE IS MELANCHOLY IN THE WIND AND SORROW IN THE GRASS"

Gradually degrading our formal writing styles. Dumbing down our literal prowess. Research has also shown that people who regularly chat are

more likely to make spelling errors.

‘’U nw whats the difrnce?’’ This definitely is a new proto-language that resembles more what

cavemen used to speak than the King's English.

Attention-deficit hyperactivity Disorder

The practice of logging on daily to see hundreds of new photos, comments, and user statuses have begun to take away our ability to keep our focus on something for more than an hour or two, making ADHD a very real and possible effect of SNS

Depression and LonelinessWhen interacting

with someone through text messages, instant messaging, or email, a large portion of how humans interact is gone.
