What do you know about social networking sites

A social networking site is a website where individuals can set up an online profile, including personal information, and add links to other profiles. Social networking sites allow users to communicate with friends or other users and share with them ideas, activities, events and interests, Facebook, Instagram and Snapchat are among the most popular social networking sites worldwide. Facebook is a great tool for keeping in touch with friends through private or public, messages. Additionally, users can join common interest user groups. Instagram and Snapchat both allow you to share pictures and videos with others and make comments. Snapchat pictures and videos only last for a few seconds after the person who receives them has seen them, but Instagram posts last longer. Young people tend to prefer these two sites for communicating with each other.
