However, one thing we should know is that china has so many people and we all know media has great impact on things, especially on politics. If all Chinese people are affected by negative opinions from activisms, the country must be in a big trouble, which may affect the whole world. <br />Besides, I use Wechat too and I like it, since its pretty convenient.

I think the use of social media is important for businesses. It gives them a way to interact with customers or clients all over the world, not just the clients in a certain area. This helps for businesses to understand what is working and what would add more to its business, varying of course by the response from certain areas. This is great for improving communication and interactions between business owners and customers or clients. I do think China has too much control over social media, but I do feel people in the states rely too heavily on social media. I agree with Kayleigh that a lot of people in the states lack many communication skills that are necessary for life. I also feel that cutting of China's use of social networking to that extent hinders there involvement with other countries and other developments around them.

The major problem with this is the disconnection from family and friends lives. Social media is definitely a powerful tool for business, news and communication as a whole but, in my opinion, it's value is unfortunately rather diluted state-side; instead of being a medium for sharing knowledge and truly relating with others over distance, social media has mostly become more of a medium for propagating shallow pop-media trends, obnoxious amounts of advertisements and venting one's personal life in a way other than working it out the natural way. We are a society obsessed with entertaining and stimulating ourselves, access to social media can exacerbate this problem as we trade doing meaningful tasks and interacting face-to-face for wandering through Internet media and interacting with a keyboard and screen from the luxury of our homes. The Chinese government, possibly weary of degrading morality, work ethic and lifestyles of many Americans, and other "open" cultures who live lavishly, may actually be doing their people a sort of favor by "keeping it old school" and not changing like the rest of the world changes.

I agree with you, that social media can be a huge asset in business communication and the growth of companies everywhere. Facebook and Twitter allow so many people to put themselves out there and be recognized. It also allows people to share ideas and encourages creativity, in my opinion. On the flip side, I think there are certain aspects of social media that are hurting our world today, both in business and in our social lives. The use of texting, Facebook, and tweeting has eliminated so many necessary life skills in communication. I wonder if people in mainland China have social skills at levels much higher than ours here in the US. Interesting story.
