Blog: Social networking sites





Visit Facebook, Twitter - and TWO other social networking site of your choosing.
Compare your impressions of these 4 sites. Note that you probably should register and log in to get the complete picture.

Social Networking Sites of my choosing:
Facebook
Twitter
Instagram
Link In

First, all of these websites are types of new media. It's used by many online users who made accounts to post contents to the public or for their friends and famiky. My impression of Facebook is that it's a social media website and app where you can post and share contents to the public or to your friends and family. As for Twitter, it's a social media website and app where you "tweet" or post/repost a message that's limited to 140 characters. Instagram is more of a photo concentrated concept where you can post photos of anything you want. Some businesses take advantage of that and uses Instagram to promote their products by uploading pictures of the products. And lastly, Link In is a application and website where you can upload your resume and that will allow employers to look at them quickly. There are options to add other people to your connections and that will help you because in business connections are everything. You can also check out other people's resume.

Blog: Next New

Suggest a new type of "new media" that doesn't currently exist. Describe it.

A new type of media can be a type of new media where people can interact with the use of internet like blogs and social websites. But this new type of media allows people to scan each other on their phones to add people and will automatically give them their information like hobbies, interests, major, occupation. It would be like Facebook but a more advance version. You can add people in real life and get to know them then say bye. But then after you say your goodbyes, you can look them up because you scanned them onto your "X new media" app onto your phone.
