Blog: Social networking sites

Four of the major social media sites are Facebook, Twitter, Reddit, and YouTube. I personally use Facebook, Reddit, and Youtube. I love using Facebook messenger because it is a fast and easy way for me to connect with my friends. Through Facebook messenger, I can share memes and talk to my friends on a daily basis. On the other hand, I love using Reddit because it provides me a customized news feed. I get to explore different things on Reddit via the subbreddits. I find the people on Reddit to be pompous. I still don't understand the culture on Reddit. Sometimes people are funny, however sometimes people are rude for no reason. I only use Reddit for the content that people share and not to connect with others. Similarly to Reddit, I also use YouTube for its content. I don't interact with others via YouTube because it is inconvenient. I personally never used Twitter before because I never had a good impression of it. I always viewed it as a platform for celebrities so I stayed away from it. In addition, none of my close friends use Twitter, so I never found a need to create one.

All in all, I would like to make our Twtich wiki similar to that of our Youtube contributions.
