Social media as boomed into our lives and now even carolled into our festive season. It has influenced our personal lives so that it has changed the way we communicate, socialize, make arrangements and meet new people. Social media has had a major influence in business, especially affiliate marketing, human resource and networking.
It's true that telephone bills are down and data bills are up. Much rather would you Facebook message your friend than pick up the phone. Sending a direct message on Twitter is easier than sending a sms. This festive season social media could be the preferred way of wishing your merry's and your happy's.
In pre social media years receiving scented vacuum cleaner bags from your eccentric aunt in India would be a joke only shared by close relatives. Now thanks to social media the festive season can be much more festive. Receiving ill-suited and unfamiliar gifts can become part of the twitter stream and be well read and commented on Facebook news feed. Social media might shame people into buying better gifts and also re-gifting this festive season could end up in social media suicide.
Let's hope we can look forward to quieter phones, open lines, and better gifts this festive season. On the other hand keep in mind to do your Christmas shopping wisely; you don't want your bad gift to go viral on social media. Best advice is to go to affiliate partner websites for the best festive season deals online, you are more likely to get special promotions and last minute offers.
