How much are we social on social networking site?

In this digital age we are using smart and android phones. We are now smart enough and all the time we are busy in social networking sites, like Facebook, Twitter, WhatsApp, Skype, etc. Our daily life has become fast due to technological development. We can communicate within a moment and can transact business from one part of the world to another by dint of technological development. Moreover, we can do bundles of work within a short time by virtue of technology. Cell phone has been a phenomenon in last couple of decades followed by Facebook, Skype, Twitter, etc. Obviously, we have been benefited by using social networking sites which are  playing a significant role  in shaping a revolution, e.g. Orange Revolution, Arab Spring, Gonojagoron Moncho, Umbrella Revolution, etc. Sometime we also use the social media for advertising, personal marketing, as well as social activities (donating blade, warm cloth distributing among the root people) and vice-versa. On the other hand, we see naked and ugly pictures in social networking media. In addition, we are randomly using 'Tumi' in lieu of 'Apni' when we are chatting on Facebook, Skype or Twitter, because of we are smart enough! We are browsing the net continuously in front of our parents, superiors and even in classrooms, because we are digital! Our manners and customs have turned digital!  We are getting accustomed to ignoring courtesy in digital way!
