Impact of Social Media

• The big .coms are trying to control the social media bandwagon.
– Google --- google+
– Yahoo – led instant messaging
– Facebook merger with WhatsApp
– Look on Wikipedia to find out which companies the big companies have acquired. (Microsoft has shares in Facebook for example).

10 years ago…
• I was laughing at the idea that computers would rely on Apps: little downloadable programs to solve instant problems in your day to day life.
• Could you ever have imagined the effect FB has on students?
• Texting was a problem in classrooms – who would have even thought of the idea of snap-chat!
• I started a twitter account in 2007. Then immediately dropped it as being pointless!
