Social Networking Sites


Consider this comment: “MySpace is for little kids, and Facebook is for young teenagers.”

MySpace: is the first social media site that I created an account with, when I was in high school. During that time, almost everyone in school has MySpace account. This is the reason I opened my own, and now I don’t use it anymore. In MySpace, you are able to add friends, write comments, post blogs, upload pictures, and so on.  

Facebook: Soon after I opened MySpace account, I opened a Facebook account as well. I didn’t use it much at the beginning. Yet as I became college student, I start using more. The reason is that in college, people don’t use MySpace anymore, they use Facebook mostly. You can do a lot more in Facebook such as update status, add photos and videos, play games, create groups, add friends, and etc. 

Twitter: I have heard a lot about Twitter before; but I didn’t create an account until now, which I need to open one for the class purpose. I found Twitter quite interesting. You can follow anyone easily just by doing a click on “follow”, and start discussing fun stuff by creating short tweets. I just read an article, which you can even look for jobs through Twitter. Isn’t it fascinating?

Flickr: its main use is for photos and videos. Billions of photos can be found on this site, the page is colorful. You can share and save your pictures online, once an account is created. You can also find and add more friends through Yahoo, Google, Facebook, and other social media sites.
