What is Social Media?

‘Social Media is online content created by people using accessible and scalable publishing technologies. At its most basic sense, social media is a shift in how people discover, read and share news, information and content. It’s a fusion of sociology and technology…and is the democraticisation of information, transforming people from content readers to publishers. Social Media has become extremely popular because it allows people to connect in the online world to form relationships for personal, political or businesses uses.’
