“Man is a social animal”, we have been listening to the respective saying since ages. It's quite imperative for humans to socialize in order for them to feel buoyant and secure. People develop relations which eventually turn into resources. The reason that tribal people still stay together in groups is to feel secure and to help each other out. Getting and staying in touch with people makes the walk of life a bit easier. If you know the right people at the right time, your probability of being successful becomes higher.
 
Social gatherings are a medium to share thoughts and ideas with each other. In this event of meeting people, one might find a solution to the problem that he or she has been facing for a very long time. Establishing social networks is not only beneficial for career or material related success, but it also ensures a sense of being and uplifts the moods of the people. Group energy is one of the most powerful forms of energy which impacts the mood of the person immediately. Ever wondered when you enter a live concert or a cricket match stadium, there is a sudden surge of euphoria that enthralls your body, that right there is an appropriate exemplification of group energy and how it impacts you immediately.
 
But as time has progressed, so is the definition of social connections and networking. In the era of digital technology, social connections and gatherings have changed its place from offline(real world) to online world. People have more connections on online platforms like Facebook, Twitter, Instagram than in the real world. Social media platforms have proven to be one of the most effective ways to be in touch with old or new friends. Though online social media channels have remarkably succeeded in recent times, the essence of meeting people in real social gatherings, parties or meetings cannot be compared or replaced with the online social media world.
