Social Addiction

Even thought I am not a big fan of Facebook I will start with it, as this one is the most popular, not only for teenagers, but for every age.
The best opportunity that Facebook gives is to share moments of your life with your friends or with the whole world (you can decide even that).
I find it quite influential, but now it kind of loosing it's popularity because of the next candidate.



Instagram. Begining to be more and more popular every day.
 Nothing superfluous just images and opportunity to comment them.
Also the important thing is that this is not an actual web site but an app on your phone, which you carry everywhere with you, so Instagram is a huge part of your lifestyle.




Twitter. I don't really get the point of this one (what didn't stop me from having an account there as well).
Personally I don't like it because I don't feel like I want to share some of my thoughts with everyone and keep them only 140 words short, but who cares about my opinion? :)
The whole world likes Twitter!


Tumblr/Blogger - two sisters of blogosphere!
It's extremely hard to compare them even though they are very like each other. Tumblr is very crowded with some inspirational images and photos. Blogger is more about writing and personal thoughts.
But I have accounts on both :)




YouTube. I have it on the 5th place because I am kind of enoyed with their new politics of "protecting rights of everyone". I've got two of my fan videos delited because I've used materials from the series, so unfair....
But now it was the sourse of popularity for Justin Buiber, and now a lot of singers and artists use it like a way to share their work with the world.



And the last one, which is outstanding from the list as it's not so international, but from my point of view is the most useful.
It has sterted as a Russian version of Facebook, but grown as the most popular web-site in russian-speaking countries.
You can watch videos there, listen to music, chat with friends, post photos and join different sorts of clubs and societies.
It's called vKontakte, what translates as "in contact".
