“The video that went viral approximately a week ago (May 2014) that decries technology and social media for taking us away from our lives was admittedly poignant. We do need to be careful that we don’t miss out on the important things in life. We also need to be careful how easily we are swayed.

Here’s an amazing video response to ‘Look Up.’

Now you may not completely agree with what this guy has to say, but you have to admit he’s at least on the mark.

Be sure to watch to the whole thing because there’s a big payoff at the end.

Enjoy.“

**Concede that you have several points. And understand that it’s a parody.

Still like the original version better.**

‘Look Up’ is a spoken word film for an online generation.

‘Look Up’ is a lesson taught to us through a love story, in a world where we continue to find ways to make it easier for us to connect with one another, but always results in us spending more time alone.

Social media is the social interaction among people in which they create, share or exchange information and ideas in virtual communities and networks. Andreas Kaplan and Michael Haenlein define social media as “a group of Internet-based applications that build on the ideological and technological foundations of Web 2.0, and that allow the creation and exchange of user-generated content.” Furthermore, social media depend on mobile and web-based technologies to create highly interactive platforms through which individuals and communities share, co-create, discuss, and modify user-generated content. They introduce substantial and pervasive changes to communication between organizations, communities, and individuals.

Social media differ from traditional or industrial media in many ways, including quality, reach, frequency, usability, immediacy, and permanence. There are many effects that stem from internet usage. According to Nielsen, internet users continue to spend more time with social media sites than any other type of site. At the same time, the total time spent on social media in the U.S. across PC and mobile devices increased by 37 percent to 121 billion minutes in July 2012 compared to 88 billion minutes in July 2011. For content contributors, the benefits of participating in social media have gone beyond simply social sharing to building reputation and bringing in career opportunities and monetary income, as discussed in Tang, Gu, and Whinston (2012).
