Moving alongside of Social Media


The 'Facebook Rapist' Thabo Bester,  

 Putting the social media in context ,which i can agree that is the main umbrella for many organisations.So far the innovation of technology has put the world in a global village.Many organisation relies on social media to send their message without any cost.According to what i see now social media such as facebook and twitter plays an important role for example the Kaizer Chiefs twitter has seed the side story idea about their manager Bobby Motaung  on charges of fraud.In this form the twitter has put the word making the job of the public relations much easier for Kaizer Chiefs as an organisation. The credit must be given to the social media platform, even though there are some disadvantage on how people in a society use it,moving along the side look how the 'Facebook rapist' end up, breaking this into communication because he knows that most of the people love social media, he took the advantage to use it even organisations do so, to
  • To build  Brand awareness
  • To generate brand engagement
  • To influence consumer perceptions
 My concern is to convert the above points to social life that social media brings to our life,the brand awareness is that people post their sexy pictures on Facebook, but moving alongside is no long for memories is to foster conservation to comment how sexy you are.look how people take video's and upload on You tube this eventually influence other people perception and decrease the chances to be seen as a professional employee in a workplace.

  3. well guys i think the inception of social media platforms has changed the way we live because for organisations its now easy to get their message across to their relevent stakeholders but also the downfall of social media is how some teenages would publish half naked pictures of themselves giving pervets like that you mentioned trot to strike gold.

  5. Social media users are really abusing it and at the end they tend to blame it when things don't go their way.Personal life has nothing to do with social media,if you feel like doing something why don't they do it without information other people whom they don't even know.
    Responsible social network users don't abuse it,hope the message is clearly.
