In this blog, I'm going to compare 4 social networking sites. They are Facebook, Twitter, Instagram, and WeChat.
On Facebook, firstly it impresses me with its basic information part because it contains the education and work experiences sections, which present Facebook is not only an entertainment platform but also a site where it shows people's real lives. Then it's its friends' recommendation. I feel this setting as a double-edged sword because it can help people expand their social circles, but meanwhile, it might hurt certain people and leak their privacies.
On Twitter, initially, I thought it is only a tool using to post short messages online, but when I deeply browse it, there're photos, videos, and advertisements posts that make Twitter vivid and amazing. On Twitter, people can follow many politicians (like Obama, Trump, etc.), stars (like Rihanna, Ariana, and Taylor, etc.), and companies or organizations (such as "Big Four" and Accenture, or NASA, etc).
On Instagram, I followed some web celebrities who usually post the most amazing photos (beauties, beautiful places, and delicious food), and they lead mainstreams and new trends. More and more users on Instagram are joining to follow them. What impresses me a lot is that such a trend helps me explore some fantastic places or food in NYC. Instagram is really "gucci"!!!
On WeChat, it is the simplest and the most convenient social media because it's designed to let people have efficient communication and posts sharing. The most impressing thing on WeChat is only when your friends are your mutual friends, some of your friends can see the messages or likes of other friends. In addition, WeChat as the basic daily communication application is necessary for Chinese because it is not simply a social media but also a payment tool functioning as your bank card. By scanning your QR code on your WeChat, you can make transactions. WeChat makes cashless society come true.
