The New Generation That Swept us All in.

We are all living today in a virtual society. The gap between real world and virtual self is fast filling even as you read this. When we say Real world, it comprises of emotions, expressions, behavior, relationships and ourselves. We all are practically living out on our digital personalities; be it in professional or personal lives.

What exactly happened that changed the entire meaning of human connect and interaction..? Is it happening for the betterment or worse..? Well, like any other discussions there are three sides of the story - good, bad, and moderate.

About a decade ago, the then upcoming social media platforms like facebook and twitter started creating buzz among youngsters. It had a connect with the youth and it was then natural to think that just youngsters, college goers and likewise demographics would be attracted to these platforms.

But who would have thought that these platforms and many others would sweep-in all generations together and metaphorically envelope entire humanity into digital world.

Today, your facebook, twitter, instagram posts define You. People get an easy chance to get far more judgmental through the your tweets, comments, page likes, inclination towards certain groups, etc. There is now, a high level of expectation to update online about all good, bad or even boring stuff happening in your life. Nowadays we take pictures or videos just to update on these platforms, that too in real time.

There can be innumerable arguments discussing the pros and cons but the simple irony which I see is that Even our parents feel the pressure of wishing you Happy Birthday online even after making you a personal phone call.

Having said all that; even this blog is giving me a new virtual identity and a whole new existence. Its like selling your soul to the Devil n Hell I am gonna enjoy it.
