...Facebook has become the norm for parents and relatives alike to really catch up on what most of us do online...the only tragedy is that they don't understand the need for social media and its relation to networking small business owners with clients and customers. As far as they are concerned- once there is a post that reflects badly on them- you have become the black sheep of the family. I think it is high time for Facebook to roll out a platform educating parents on why many people click on likes and what are the impacts of posts for multiple usage.
...Twitter has become a total avenue for voiceless youths across Africa and other continents to say something loudly. Whatever the stakes; check up many twitter handles and you will be amazed how many Africans or Indians twit about going to the "coffee shop" or watching "Erin Brokovich"...all that is totally American or European...Those of us on the Sub continents and Africa always twit about how we wish we could change the world. Some of us at least.
....How can social media help African parents embrace the voice they never hear at home. Many still leave in fear of been found out if they had closet issues or were secretly married to a millionaire. Social media is not just the next best thing for ICT users worldwide; it has become the best business tool for small business owners as well.
