What is annoying about social media!

Social media as a concept is good. But over the years the the features were abused by the unscrupulous users. For example The "Nudge" feature in MSN, "Poke " feature in Facebook , "Share the Love " in Bebo to name a few are being abused and these features are the reasons for many recent controversies. In fact many parents are scared about their children's usage of Social media.

There are some annoying features no doubt but on the whole it opens up the mind ....I see people becoming much more open minded and willing to accept many things that they would not have a decade ago..

Nothing is perfect. If social media has some positive than must he has some nagative things.

Using social media is absolutely a personal choice. Many people use it for different personal benefits either for communication with friends and relatives or for their business purpose. One should avoid it if he is finding it not up to his/her use/liking/standard.

I use social media only to represent my blog, as in most cases it is anonymous, except Google+ as it has compelled me to stay in my name, it is personal choice, there are option to suspend or dismiss your account, these can be disabled, sometime, social media like twitter and Facebook gives chance to connect with friend and families, as twitter has become a form of short messaging service, on the other hand Facebook give me joy as most of times unable to attend social functions and get together, cousins brothers and sisters used to post screen shots of images on Facebook wall and this gives immense joy.

Connections with friends and family members is one part of Facebook. It caters to the needs of some people But there is another kind of people like me who crave for an opportunity to express in a creative way. In my case its art in different forms. In this respect Facebook is a damp squib for me.

I also use social media for these purposes only and almost never visit any sites unless a request to 'follow' or 'friend' pops up in my mail. I do not have to go to any of the sites as 'share' button solves the purpose. Of course one has the choice of cancelling account if he/she finds it annoying. You do not have to read any posts on mandatory basis. I never do.

That is a valid point ! Unless a person is confident and willing to face the consequences he or she should not venture into it.There is no point in crying wolf after later.I know of a lady who would blabber about every little detail that happens in her house, about her relatives, about the fights she had with others etc on Facebook and this led to a lot of misunderstanding with her own family and close relatives who got annoyed with her for making private matters public.So it is really in our hands as to how far we are willing to go and be responsible for our actions...

I agree, I have seen so many intimate information on Facebook those make me wonder as how these people announce and post their private photos on that site. They never think that in case their relations soured over the period, how would they explain about them to concerned parties.

This is not the first time that I am reading about the 'Poke' feature being in the list of annoying features. I don't remember where exactly I read it, but I am sure I read it before. Apart from that the auto messages from Twitter is another thing. But anyways, that will continue as it the business of the sites and they have to survive.

Annoying factors will be there in every social media. May be less in some and more in some. No body can make you do what you are not willing to do. If there are annoying elements in a particular site. stop looking towards that site. That's as simple as that

While we are using all these sites for our personal benefits, how can we expect others to keep watching our posts? It's kind of give and take on so called social media sites otherwise these are purely business. Some for them - some for us. No regrets.

Whatever may be the reason. I feel wisdom lies in keeping such sites at bay if you feel that there are annoying factors instead of lamenting over the annoying elements.

There are hundreds of thousands of posts getting posted daily on such sites. And it is really difficult to get in the eyes of the readers for new blogs and sites. It then becomes frustrating and annoying as well.

Obviously, if you follow someone with 20k followers, you can very well imagine where your posts end-up ultimately. As long as my one tweet gets me 30-40 views on certain sites, I am not worried. Facebook is no good for me because people are more interested in exchange programs, that is not my cup of tea. I neither LIKE nor LIKED.

Frankly I am very bitterly disappointed with a few and I won't name them because I find myself in the company of some people whom I won't have given them a damn or touch them with a barge pole in real life!!!

I have also had great experiences with Twitter. I also used to get such views. At times I used to get in access of 100 views after just one tweet. However, things have pretty much changed now. I guess you are talking of any writing site!?

Surprisingly some sites get very few views while some others get comparatively larger views on twitter. I do not understand the reason but could well be the location of site.
