Chatting has taken a new turn around from what it use to be years back, its more fun now, exciting with loads of ungrades and tools available to spice up chats and interactions on the various platforms.
Chatting for me has been the major channel through which I speak and open up, I interact freely on social media with people than I have been able to do with them face-to-to face (there is hardly time for physical meetings and distance is a barrier most time, chatting easily solves that), my hand seems to connect at a fast pace and put to words whats in thought, so I flow easily when I place mine hands on the keyboard of the chats platforms.
Chatting on the various Social Media Platforms out there has been fun for me, through it I have meet new people from different part of Nigeria and even other part of the world. I have exposures and insight to things I don't know before and even rub mind with likes mind while chatting.
Aside those things I mentioned above, one of the major thing of note I have gained so far through chatting is Clients/Customers, through Social Media Marketing on Platforms like Facebook, WhatsApp, Twitter and the likes, I have been able to market mine business/skills, telling people about mine hand work and I have been linked up with customers through such Chats or Post who entrusted me with their projects and has even brought in more referrals.
Also it hasn't been all fun while chatting, I have been scammed too, I made part payment for a birthday present in a group chat that I intended to purchase and surprise my wife with, but it ended up the seller was a scammer, he scammed me of the part payment I made. All efforts to get my money proofs abortive, I was only successful at getting the scammer kicked out of the chat group.
This doesn't mean I gave up on Chatting and the Social Media Platforms at large, but it has made me wiser in mine dealings and the way I use them.
Thanks
