Social Networking Sites

Facebook, Twitter, Youtube, and Ask.fm are all social media sites I use or have used before in the past. Facebook is primarily used to stay in contact with friends and family members. There are also games you can play, and invite other to play on facebook such as Farmville which I remember being pretty popular a while back. From my experience on facebook, a lot of people try to stay a bit more proper as their family members also follow their facebooks. I've even seen cases where people blocked their parents on facebook just so they wouldn't be a able to see their activities. A lot of people go to twitter to escape that. On twitter, most people follow their friends, fav celebrities or companies, political figures etc. It's a bit rare that anyone with a twitter account also has family members on their twitter, so they can cut loose in their tweets if they weren't able to in their facebook posts. Youtube is primarily used for watching videos on the internet posted by other users. If you find a channel that posts a lot of content you like, then you can subscribe to them so that you're notified whenveer they upload anything new. You may also make and post your own videos for the world to see. Who knows, it could end up going viral. Ask.fm is a website where people ask one another questions. Accounts may also follow one another and see what kind of questions and answers their friends are getting and giving. It is automatically checked off so that your question would be asked anonymously next to the question box, but you can opt for your username to appear so the other person knows whos asking them the question. These questions can range from small talk questions, to very personal questions. The intent of thes questions can also be harmless, or malicious due to the nature of appearing anonymous. Users also don't have to answer every question they are asked. The website itself also throws a random question of the day at the user.
