better use of time that we spend social media

Very contentious issue. As long as the time is idle, or not going to be productive in terms of one's duties, social media are fine tools. But, being obsessed with the mdeia , to the detriment of one's more pressing responsibilities is not acceptable.There is a difference between a student andhis / her grand parents, a professional unwinding at home and a student neglecting studies to chat on facebook , twitter etc. In case of professionals, if it is seen, that, they are neglecting their work , to scan the latest arrivals in their pages or boxes n a forum, that will surely have telling effect in their careers. To remain updated on the ongoing issues facing the state or nation is one thing, for which we get SMS alerts from media houses, if we ipt for those. But to be more concerned with what the apparitions in a virtual are reacting to my write ups , posted last night, is absolutely puerile, rather harmful for both career and family. I am sure, the fast track professional environment employers do not give the personnel on their pay rolls , getting such luxury during working time.But what the front office girl will do at her desk, where her duty is only to show up her smiling face with cooling effect to tame an agitated visitor waiting for so long to meet the person he wants or get the work done?
