SOCIAL MEDIA AND NETWORK BETWEEN GENERATION Y AND
GENERATION Z
We’re the
generation that popularized social media and network, social media and network
is one of important thing for all people nowadays. Everyone has at least one of
social media and network. There’s a lot of social media and network such as
Facebook, twitter, instagram and many more. Social media and network has a lot
of advantage, we gain a lot of knowledge and information from social media and
network, furthermore it is one of big platform in our daily life. Without
social media and network we could lost a lot of information and updates in our
surrounding. Some more social media and network not only connected us to our
local area but it also connects us to the world without consume us a lot of
money and time and this is the advantage for us to get the information up to
dates. Moreover, without social media and network we looked like so outdated
compare to others, this is because nowadays almost all of people have at least
one social media they sign up
Generation Y also knew as the Millennial
demographic who born from the early 1980s to the early 2000s. While generation
Z is the people born after the Millennial Generation, born at the mid or late
1990s or from the mid-2000s to the present day. How these two different
generation use social media in their daily life? There are many differences the
usage of social media between generation Y and generation Z, both generation
has their own way to use all the existing social media either in the
good way or bad way.
There’s a reason why Generation Y are dubbed ‘digital
natives’ and their use of social media is definitely a major part of that
reason. More often than not, generation Y use their smartphone to access
social media, in fact 90% use their smartphone to check their social media
accounts before they even wake from bed in the morning. This is because social
media for generation Y is the platform for them to communicate with their
friends and family, they mostly will share about celebrities and talk about
dating or relationship, music and sports with their friends. Generation Y are
more likely to be nostalgic on social media, they religiously post photos, talk
about childhood TV shows and movies they grew up watching, and often reminisce
about old fashion trends. For twitter usage, generation Y tweet an average of
8x a day.
Different with Generation Z, more than any other
generation, today’s youth are extensively connected to and shaped by their friends.
Because of the internet now can connected 24/7, the network can influences
generation Z to the technology based. This technology, while helping to
facilitate their relational world can also negatively impact it with negative
vibes it’s because generation Z sometimes like to share everything about their
self without thinking either their status can effected to their life or not. Sometimes
we noticed this generation Z being a keyboard warrior by fighting in the social
media and there have the issue that a third of student having bullied via
social networking website such as Facebook, Twitter, Instagram and ect. This
can bring to the bad impact to the new generation.
In conclusion we
need to manage our usage of this social media for our future generation. Yes
this social media and networking have a very good impact but at the same time
it’s also give us the negative one.
