10. At its most basic sense, social media is a shift in how people discover, read and share news, information and content. It's a fusion of sociology and technology , transforming monologue (one to many) into dialog (many to many) and is the democratization of information, transforming people from content readers into publishers. Social media has become extremely popular because it allows people to connect in the online world to form relationships for personal and business uses.
