Post 4

      Perhaps, one of the most interesting phenomenons within the last fifteen years is the unforeseen impact of Social media. According to the Alexa top 500 websites, Facebook is currently ranked number two, Youtube is in the number three spot, and Twitter is at number eight. People like to interact. Social Media provides the ability for anyone to interact with a one to many approach. This has frustrated the business world which is now under the constant pressure of negative reviews surfacing and spreading. Yet, this isn't a bad thing because it holds any business with customer service to a higher standard of ethics and service. People tend to trust the reviews of their fellow peers despite the bias. For better or worse, people post their opinions and views. Even the growing threat of the radical terrorist group ISIS, is using Twitter as a means of recruiting internationally. While others are posting articles relaying the brutality of this middle eastern organization. Social media has been an intricate part of the evolution in the world wide web and the interactions the world now shares together.
