Social media has transformed from simple networking platforms into cultural powerhouses. Early sites like MySpace and Friendster paved the way for giants like Facebook, Instagram, and TikTok.
Trends evolve rapidly, from text-based status updates to short-form videos and AI-generated content.

The future of social media may depend on balancing engagement with responsibility.
