Yes and No. Yes because - social media has given an opportunity to everyone to express their views and opinions without inhibition and in some cases with reasonable anonymity. Everyone is now more willing to share their thoughts without the fear of ridicule. People who would have never opened their mouth in front of an audience are now expressing in front of a worldwide albeit virtual audience. No because - social media is allowing mainly verbal communication only. A lot of message is lost because of the missing vocal and visual characteristics (unless of course one is communicating through video's).

How to use the below pattern in english? Could+have+been In the above pattern some times we use "been" & many times we don't use. Example: 1. It could have been better, if you were attended the party. 2. I could have gone to the party. Thanks
I think your example should read "It would have been better, if you attended the party" we use could have when there is another option, eg He could have washed the dishes, but he chose to watch tv
