Introduction:
This topic is chosen because now a day social media progress fast as well as it
becomes faster its also effect on the student badly. It is important to aware the people
of the side effect of social media that play an important role in student life specially
new generation. Most of the students are waste their time and money by the use of
social media students loose their skills which is bad for them and also our
country.they loss their privacy by posting the status now a days it becomes a trend for
student to upload the status. Regarding social media, I really don't understand what
appears to be the general population's lack of concern over privacy issues in
publicizing their entire lives on the Internet for others to see to such an extent... but
hey it's them, not me, so whatever. (Axl Rose , February 6, 1962).
By discus that topic we can aware
the people actually what the problems they can face in social media most of people
are like unknown about it but use .it.distracted from distraction by distraction (T.S
ELIOT)
When face-to-face discussions are impossible or inconvenient, humans have dreamed
up plenty of creative solution.
In 1977 first social sites is lunched that named by Six Degrees. Allow the users create
profile and make other friends. In 2000, 100 million people had access to the social
media and it quite common for people and more and more people utilize the chat
rooms, making friends, discus the topics. In 2000s the website MY SPACE was
popular. My space in an original social media profile website loading and inspiring
the like face-book. In 2006, messaging and SMS insipid the media and then introduce
the tweeter and its user are 500 millions. In 2010 there were dozens of web sites are
introduced by social media like flicker, instagram etc. It's funny because everyone
says, 'Ohyou're reclusive; you don't do social media,' but it's not about being
reclusive. I like direct contact, and I like contact that's purposeful.

The roots of social media stretch far deeper than you might imagine. Although it
seems like a new trend, sites like Face book are the natural outcome of many centuries
of social media development. Now a days thousand of web sites are available but all
have different purpose and also have different function that in tract the people.
Social media is the cooperative, online system of interaction allowing users to
communicate and develop relationships within the confines of the global village.I
don't engage in social media, which has its good and bad sides, I guess - but the good
side is when people hate my guts, I'm kind of oblivious to it. (Hilarie Burton).
social media is an internet-based form of communication. Social media platforms
allow users to have conversations, share information and create web content. There
are many forms of social media, including blogs, micro-blogs, wikis, social Every
time you post a photo, or update your status, you are contributing to your own digital
footprint and personal brand. Amy Jo Martin Time,Media,Brand
(Amy Jo
Martin , July 5, 1979).
networking sites, photo-sharing sites, instant messaging, video-sharing sites, podcast,
widgets, virtual worlds, and more. It takes discipline not to let social media steal
your time
( Alix ohanian )
Todays world is a global village. Everyone is connected to one another in this vast
network generated by the Internet.
The purpose of this study is to identify the negative effects of social
media such as Face book, you-tube among University students
Because of social media platforms widespread adoption by
university students, there is an interest in how Face book is related
to performance of students. This paper measure frequency of use,
participation in activities and time spent preparing for class, in order
to know if Face book affects the performance of students. Moreover,
the impact of social network site on academic performance also
raised another major concern which is health. Today social network
sites are running the future and carrier of students.There's a danger in
the internet and social media. The notion that information is enough, that more and
more information is enough, that you don't have to think, you just have to get more
information - gets very dangerous. (Edward de Bono , May 19, 1933)

world now the devices are introduced which can be arrange what you want to watch
the children you can arrange the device as your choice it is the simple way to controls
the effect of social media. By the specific use of it is also control it. Should have to
divert their mind in study, in different activities like sports and other thinks, give time
to family member that is the way in which the student can avoid the social world and
spend their time in these things except social media.
