Social Networking Sites

Instagram - Instagram only allows people to post pictures, not the words itself, you should post a picture in order to write something to share. If you are in private setting, strangers cannot see anything from your profile, posts are only shared to your followers who you gave permission to follow. When you tap on explore, there are many pictures that I might be interest in seeing, sometimes I screenshot them and save them for later. Also, you can have multiple accounts at once, you do not have to log off and log in every time you want to change your account. I prefer to use Instagram compared to other social networking systems, because it feels like I have total privacy and have interesting pictures.
Facebook - Facebook feels like it is more likely open to everyone. Some of the pictures are in public, you cannot edit the privacy. Posts that are liked and commented by your friends are on your news feed. Facebook has a page that you can share your information such gender, birthday, school, religion and relationship statue. You can make groups and let people join the group and shared their ideas or opinions for many purposes. Also, You can express your feeling on posts and comment. It was many advertisements on the site.
Twitter - Tweets are limited to only 140 characters long, for longer characters, you have to divide them into many tweets. It feels like everything is all over the place, you can see every comments that your follower posted which makes me to think that it is very unorganized. You retweet (RT) posts that you are interested in. Like Instagram, Twitter has the following system, it is not people are becoming friends, if someone follows you and you do not have to follow back you do not have to.
Snapchat - Just like Instagram, you can only share pictures but in different way. You can share your pictures to certain friends, you can send them to the friends you selected. If they screenshot your snap, you get notifications. If you want to share your pictures to everyone, you can create your story, when your friends click on your profile, they will be able see your story and you can see who looked at your story. Also, you can edit your picture, you can write on it, put stickers and other fun things.
