Ted Talk #1



                       To begin with Wael Ghonim says that in today's world there are five critical challenges facing today's social media. One positive impact about social media is you could spread social media activism and calling other people. Some negative impacts are hackers and and bad comments. 

                       One of the critical challenges is rumors is something  we don't know how to control. Rumors are believed and spread around the world. Another one is everyone creates their own echo chambers. People only attend to communicate with people they agree which is good. Third, discussions turn to angry mobs so this is saying there are negative things in social media also we forget but there are no avatars only real people.  Another or fourth, its hard to change our opinion because we often focus to improve our opinion. Last Social Media is experienced are designed in a way that favors broadcasting over engagements.

                      But not only Weal Ghonim tells 5 critical challenges but he says two liberate things about the internet. The first one is we have to use social media as it is suppose to be, using it by discussing with new people, not saying bad comments. The last one is we should not believe in other people, believe in yourself because you might have better ideas than them.

                      In conclusion we have learned Weal Ghonim five critical challenges and two things he liberated about social media.
