So my final blog post for the semester, we’ve had some good
times, some bad times and overall some laughs. I’m actually going to miss
writing these blog posts, they were fun! Maybe I will continue! Depending on
whether I can be bothered or not (most likely not)
Future trends for social media? Honestly? I think
smartphones, smart phones combined with social networking (Facebook, Twitter)
will be where we’re headed, because the trend of smartphones isn’t dying yet,
until Apple stop making them, or somehow damage their reputation, smartphones
will continue to exist, and even then something better will come along that
could do twice is much. But this new age of mobile social media is definitely
going to continue and spread even further.
Although, not so much with advertising on Facebook, (as that was clearly a flop, lol Zuckerberg, more like Suckerberg! Am I right? Wow, nope, that was terrible. Moving right along...)

But, more so a connection with Twitter and developing
traditional forms of media to be more interactive and social.
I think we’re going to see a lot more blogs, of people who are both advertisers and users of products, word of mouth online is a huge deal and will always be the reason behind peoples purchases online and that this will be developed even further, by advertisers trying to persuade buyers by being the anonymous buyer who was ‘highly satisfied’ with this product, etc. which kinda sucks!
But anyway, I think
that social media and being ‘mobile’ is going to become the new big
thing, well, bigger than it is now. Sorry to say this, but going out to a
restaurant with your friends whilst constantly texting someone and barely
talking to them will be the new thing. Actually speaking to someone will be considered out of the ordinary. More
business and advertising on websites and social networking sites, and text
messages will be more popular than ever, I get the feeling most business meetings
or interviews will start to be over the phone and most business deals will be
online, essentially, everything will
go online.

probably take over the world also. Give it, 10 years max? and as I type this my
laptop is telling me that “google” is an incorrect word because I didn’t put a
capital ‘G’ at the start! Well sooorrrry. my point proven right there.
Wow there's even a website for it! http://googleworlddomination.com/
