I may sound #overthetop ( please don't use this hashtag) but social media is an integral part of my daily life. I personally find it is easier to connect, produce and promote my work with a large audience without hitting my pockets. Social Media platforms are widely used for communicating, networking and business services and much more. It gives one a cloud a space to exhibit their thoughts. Some use it to communicate their feelings and words with friends, family, colleagues and loved ones. So, to be precise social media is used by any one whom you wishes to communicate.
Well! I guess it's not just me but an entire 400 million or more users who use social media platforms and it's features. Some make it big using their talents and some make it dig miss using the social platforms. Making it one of the largest and widely used applications by billions of users. What happens when you cannot use your favorite app / social media for say sometime.

Believe me, we all say it doesn't matter but some of us may have tired refreshing their poor
phone over a hundred times, causing unwanted stress and panic. It happened to me and after about 10 minutes of hustling around the app. I just PAUSED! to think and breath. I realized that I gave my energy and strength battling like a blood bath for a social media app. I do admit, I heavily rely on promoting my work but isn't this an tertiary activity for me. Well, it is and it must be for most user's but here we all go in a panic mode the minute something isn't working.
Social Media is indeed one of the big resources and user oriented applications. These provide a platform to engage with the not just any but global, local, regional and like -minded audiences. It is a universe of its own. So, does this mean, we cannot function without them or it will get difficult. Think about this, what if you lost your mobile would you worry about the loss of your phone, your personal information or the apps installed in it.

The most obvious answer, will be the handset and even more crucial your personal information. App's are installed to enhance your user experience be it in communications or networking. You would agree that any app / machine program cannot be considered as indispensable and can replaced with another similar or different one to fill the void.
I am a social media fan but my love for these platforms is more due to work or maybe I am just business minded. Let's be a little honest, if you are into socializing one of the most easiest ways to communicate is via an app but what if it's no more available or out of service. Would you still be stuck with the lost love? or Would you find the same love in another app? Well this option is definitely upon the individual users and it's a choice.

What made me write today? -- Reason - I took an opportunity to write this electronic post, on 4 Oct 2021 where some of my friends, family, colleagues, loved ones - all of them kept asking me about the Social Media Outage. They could not use some of their favorite apps and so did I. Hence, I took this opportunity to write this piece of information to calm all my darlings and also lighten up their mood. I am not a specialist to talk about the outage but I hope this post let's you calm down and relax. Till then let's wait for the clickable suit to restore.
