Social Networking Sites

After visiting and using Facebook, Twitter, Instagram, and snapchat. I'd have to say that even though I do agree with the fact that facebook is being taken by the older generation by article "Twitter Winning Teens As Parents Flood Facebook" I still believe it is my favorite social media platform. To be honest I get most of my news updates from Facebook, and even watch Facebook videos more often than youtube videos. Facebook allows you to do anything from saying hello to a friend and renting an apartment off Facebooks marketplace. Since Instagram and snapchat are the newest platforms they are the most used ones by children and teens. Although instagram is very similar to Facebook (since facebook owns it), to me it's just the #2 just because you can do a ton more on facebook. I was never like Bonne Smalley from the article "A Day with 400 Tweets Starts with simplicity" I was never a fan of just tweeting random tweets or following or Retweeting random accounts. I use Twitter strictly for sports news, to me Twitter is used for as my sports news app. I get instant updates from teams, and analyst on upcoming trades, free agencies, and injuries.

The internet alone and all of these social media platforms like facebook, instagram... have all of the information that you put out there even messages. We trust/hope that these platforms remain Confidential when dealing with our private information, but that goes to say that nothing on the internet is private even if a post was deleted it can always be retrieved.
