With the development of the high technology today, people use electronic devices any time and everywhere. People use phones to communicate with each other, people are more likely to chat with other online not face to face. However, there are a group of people believe, the social media is a bad thing that can waste people’s time and money, also can make people lose some important abilities. Therefore, in today’s society, people use various apps to communicate and get some News like WeChat, Weibo, Facebook, Instagram and etc. People can get the news from the social media at a time and only by some simple sentence that can make people easy understand. Also, the chatting software could make people fear or do not know how to communicate with other people in the real life not on their electronic devices. Not hard to find, smartphones change is actually our way of communication. Map instead of asking, microblogging replaced chat. The original need to face to face the exchange, into a photo, typing, upload, refresh, download, comments, around a large circle, and finally presented in two 3.5-inch screen. We bowed our heads and closed our mouths to let our fingers and eyes replace our mouths and ears. Besides, the social media can make the distance between people are getting closer and closer. So, there are both advantage and disadvantage in the social media. People like to follow the people they like or interest in on the internet, when the people who they followed post something new on the internet, they may like to care about what happened. Rather than twitter or Instagram in China, Weibo is more popular and necessary for the people in China, people around the age of twenty, may spend a lot of time on update what is going on in the Weibo. However, the news or something in the Weibo are appear in some short sentences or some images that can make people easy understand and get some important information in a short time. Such a long time easily lead people lose some abilities on language and learning skills like long page reading and word spelling.

For today’s society, people can learn from everywhere, also in Weibo, there are various of bloggers that update some knowledge every day and then some people can learn something by some simple words and images. People use Weibo not just for looking something good from the app, they also upload something they think and they saw on it to record their moods and thoughts. There have space constraints in Weibo, so that people cannot write something in a long page, only for some sentences. However, there are also some positive way that the social media give. When we learn a language, It is important to expand your vocabulary range to accurately express what you want to tell others. When people use the Weibo, they may know some knew word or sentences every day and just spend a little time. Follow some people you like, when they update something new on their page, you may like to figure out what they say and that may make you learn.

However, for a lone time, people may have social software dependency, the interaction and emotion between people are becoming more and more cold, and without these social software life, they will lose some fun. In addition, for most bloggers on Weibo, the words and sentences they write can only use in our daily life not in some official ways. There are also some bloggers like The people’s Daily and The CCTV News, the words and sentences they write are Official and rigorous, people can easily understand what happened around the world. When people look these every day, they may have some memories about the words and sentences that these official bloggers use and when they need to write something, they may get used to using the words and sentences they saw before to help them write.

Moreover, there are lots of foreign people use Weibo now, some of them may like to update some language learning skills about their language that can help people who interest in. So that people can learn something they want on the internet and do not need to go to some classes.
