Social Networks

This is going to take me a week to fill out - so stay tuned...

We have (in no particular order)

Myspace - is this even still in existence? I don't use it much. In fact it's been years since my last log on. But, it gave you the customization to the background you wanted. Then, it lagged, slow as crap and nothing but kids on there. So, everyone moved to Facebook

Facebook - The original design was loved by many. The new design is hated by many. I personally hate the new design. Nothing we can do about it.
It's plain - Nice
Pictures you can limit your audience - Nice
Scrolling down to find something - Not so nice
Circles - Not so nice
Like pages - Eh, okay.

My own personal opinion, people are still there because of the games. If the games could travel, so would the people.

Twitter - Is there really a point to this? I'm on twitter. However, I rarely check it. I get people who I'm not even following in my feed. Impossible to keep track of tweets that come through. I have it, but gave up on it.

Pinterest - I forgot where I saw the phrase. I'm not taking credit for it, but it went something like, clothing kids we don't have, decorating homes we'll never own, and food recipes we'll never gain enough courage to attempt. It's an interesting concept. Reminds me of an organized Facebook to where you can easily go back to it later. I'm on it, but I don't do much with it.

Instagram - Never done it. But, I heard after they said whatever photos you upload now become their property, eff that! Many people left instagram. I can't comment on the usage or functionality because I never signed up for it.

Google + - I personally like this one. It's Facebook and twitter rolled into one. Circles are easier to control. Sorry for the people who don't play games. There's not much on there. I think that's why no one's transferred over.

And more...
