Hi! This is first time I'm writing blog, so basically this is training for me. First we should write about our experiences, preconceptions and expectations. So lets talks about that. I have been using social media pretty long time. I haven't been too active producing anything myself, I have mainly beem watcher. I use Facebook and Instagram, before I have had account in Twitter and Periscope. I deleted my account in Twitter because I almost never tweeted anything and I felt that i didn't needed it. Periscope was just not my thing.
When I first started to use social media, my choice was facebook long time ago. I cannot remember how old I was when i made my Facebook account, somewhere around high school age. I didn't had any preconceptions about it as I remember because at that point I didn't know what to expect from it. I remember that it turned out to be very usefull keeping contact to friends and option to make groups was very good when setting something up or making event. Also information moved lot quicker and easier than before, especially if that info had to reach multiple people. I was very happy about it, looking other people pictures and adding own ones was nice also. But the most important thing for me was tha groupmaking and chatting feature.
My second thouch to social media was Instagram. It was long after I started using Facebook, but once again I cannot remember exact age when i first made my account. It was when Instagram started to be big thing. Again i didn't had any preconceptions because so many of my friends already used it. Last year I deleted my account for short time. I got bored to social media so I had little brake from it. Then I learned that social media is addictive. In that short while I felt bored when I didn't have anything to watch when there was nothing to do.
When using social media I have learned its downsides. It takes concentration from surrounding world and what once happened there, neves disappears or is forgotten. For example sometimes in Facebook old pictures or status updates jump in news feed. Sometimes those pictures could revive memories from unpleasant moments or show old things that could be forgotten. And social media really takes time. When using it it sucks all of the concentration and then no one can reach that person. It makes conversation difficult and then user easily passes nice and cool things that he or she can see or experience otherwise.
