Businesses
use twitter in many different ways. The main purpose of twitter for businesses
is to send out the message of the business and its products/services through
advertisements. Businesses can buy
advertisements on twitter for a fee or they can create an account. An official
account for a business can have millions of followers which is a great way to
advertise. They can talk about their company for no fee at all. However, some
negative effects of twitter on businesses are due to the the interactions
between the customer and the business. Customers can give their opinion, which
are sometimes no so nice, and this can cause a negative interactions. All these
interactions can make the reputation of the business go down and make the
business lose profit.
The
social aspect of twitter has the ability to affect and touch many people across
the country. Twitter allows everyone to talk and communicate with each other
within seconds. You can talk to anyone about anything from sports, to business,
to just interacting with family and friends. However, the downfall of this
technology is that you cannot take back anything you say. If you say something
mean or give out personal information about yourself and delete it it’s still
out in the internet. It will never go away, so you have to be very careful in
what you say and how you say it because you never know whose watching.
The
twitter world has a large impact on the entertainment industry. Many actors and actresses can interact with
the public through twitter. Also twitter allows the celebrities to speak
directly with their followers and increase the PR greatly. This PR can be used
to promote a movie or show along with different things the celebrities promote.
They might be the spokesperson for a product and by twitting something positive
about the product they influence their followers to purchase that product. Also
bands and concerts can promote themselves and tickets and deals to their shows
without having to pay for advertising. The negative affect on the entertainment
industry is that the publicity isn’t always positive and it can give that group
or individual a bad reputation. In doing so they may lose followers and cause
them to become less popular.
News
can travel faster with twitter. No one needs to watch the TV anymore or listen
to the radio to know the news. Now they can just refresh their phones and they
can know what is happening all around the world. It makes people more knowledgeable
about the world around them and what is happening. But being exposed to all
this news can be a bad thing. Sometimes we don’t want to know that something
sad is happening, but if it pops up on your news feed you are basically forced
to see it. This makes people very aware of their surroundings and sometimes people
have opinions that don’t exactly match. These situations can cause fights and arguments.
Twitter
in a great way to waste free time and interact with your buddies. Twitter is a
great way to keep up on things that are important to you like sports and news.
You can also talk to anyone in the world with common interests and find people
to talk to about things you like and get their opinions. It makes you smarter
and more open to the rest of the world and the opinions in it. But this could
lead to stalking and hate acts by other people that you do not want to be
associated with. You always have to be careful and be safe or else it could be
a problem.
