Trending TikTok

-

             TikTok has undeniably redefined the way society consumes and interacts with content in the digital age. The platform's user-generated short videos have revolutionized entertainment, reshaped societal trends and influenced culture. With its addictive algorithm that tailors content to each individual, TikTok has captivated a vast audience, transcending age, gender and geographical boundaries. This diverse user base has led to the rapid propagation of trends, sparking conversations and shaping popular culture in real-time. Additionally, TikTok has become a cornerstone of social activism, amplifying voices on critical social issues and driving meaningful change through viral challenges and campaigns. The app's influence is a testament to the shift in societal dynamics, marking a new era of cultural impact driven by user-generated content.


In recent years, TikTok has seen an unprecedented surge in its user base, indicating a rapid growth unparalleled by many social media platforms. Arguably the most distinctive feature of this skyrocketing popularity is its significant appeal among the younger generations. TikTok's accessibility and format have effectively captured the attention and engagement of younger audiences, becoming a hotbed for the emergence of viral trends and challenges that swiftly capture the online world's attention. The platform has become a creative hub for trendsetting content, influencing not only digital culture but also leaving a remarkable imprint on society at large.

TikTok has undeniably transformed the landscape of social behavior, leading to a redefinition of communication and interactions. It has revolutionized how individuals connect and engage with each other, sparking new trends in fashion and beauty. The platform's far-reaching influence can be observed in the widespread adoption of TikTok-originated clothing styles and makeup techniques. Additionally, it has become a catalyst for the spread of viral challenges and dances, impacting the way individuals interact and share content. From comical challenges to dance routines, TikTok has revolutionized social trends and behaviors worldwide, demonstrating its profound impact on communication, fashion and viral content.

TikTok's meteoric rise shows no signs of slowing down, paving its way in the social media landscape. The exponential growth and continuous innovation of the platform have redefined how content is created, consumed and shared globally. Consequently, this exponential growth has the potential to reshape traditional media and marketing strategies, as it becomes increasingly evident that TikTok is not just a passing phase, but a dominant force. However, concerns over privacy and data usage remain, raising questions about the platform's ethical and legal implications. As TikTok continues to expand its influence, its impact on society and these concerns will likely become more pronounced.

Social Media Impact

      Social media is a widely used tool today and is constantly continuing to change and develop. With how prominent social media is today in society, it's crazy to think about how there was a time before it, or even just how the use of it has changed from when it was first introduced.     Social media has always been used to connect people and network in a way. When platforms such as Twitter, Facebook, and Instagram first came out many people used it to stay connected to those around them and in their community such as family and friends. While many people still do use social media for this, it also is used now to connect people to employers, companies/businesses, products, etc.       It has even become a tool in many workplaces and now something that is being studied and taught in some universities. Social media has impacted different lines of work and is used daily, such as in careers in marketing and public relations. It has changed the way many companies even advertise their

                         As the final weeks of the spring semester drag on, the boredom of endless assignments and exams has me anxiously waiting for summer freedom. The thought of waking up without the burden of early classes, tedious homework and stressful deadlines becomes an increasingly tempting fantasy. I can almost taste the refreshing lemonade, feel the warm sun on my face and hear the laughter of my friends as we enjoy the long, lazy days. The thought of trading textbooks for beach reads, pencils for pool floats and classrooms for backyard barbecues fills me with excitement. Although I know there are still a few weeks, my mind has already wandered to the carefree bliss that awaits on the other side.                Each day, I find myself counting down the few weeks that remain until the glorious summer break. The relentless grind of classes, assignments and exams has left me absolutely exhausted. My eyes are fixed firmly on the finish line, yearning for the freedom and rejuv

Buhi Simternship

Over the course of this semester, I have worked on and completed a simulation internship for my social media class. The ‘simternship’, as Stukent calls it, was comprised of 12 rounds that were broken up into four sections. With each section containing three rounds, the sections consisted of the following: organic social posts, paid social posts, social media influencers, and the combination of all three at once. During the first three rounds of the simternship, I did not do as well as I would have liked with organic posts. I tried to keep the number of posts and money spent on media for posts fairly equal between platforms. This tactic did not play out too well for me because some platforms did not generate as much revenue as I had spent on media for them. However, I gave myself some grace because it was still early-on, and I wanted to allow myself to learn which platforms perform the best and which ones I should optimize more throughout the rest of the simulation. So, when it came t
