Social Media Sites


            Today I'll be going over some Social Media sites that are free and that you may want to check out and use.


Google+
  Google+ is like Google's answer to MySpace, Facebook, and Skype, but does things differently.  Now the Google+ layout is quite simple in ways of how it looks and operates.

         Google+ also allows you to keep your friends, family, and etc. organized up top.  Now as you can see by the picture it's layout is very similar to Facebook's, but very much more simpler to understand at first glance and doesn't always keep changing every five days.  another neat thing is that Google+ has a cool little neat thing called hangouts.  The best way for me to describe hangouts is that it's very much like Skype and if you don't know Skype then its like this.  What Google hangouts does is that you can get a bunch of friends across computer, hone, or whatever that can in a Google hangout session, where you can talk to your friends via video or audio.

MySpace
   Now MySpace is the odd one out of the whole bunch because of the way its setup.
Myspace page layout
     Now in my opinion I think Myspace is just a very bad site when its trying to be like Facebook, but I think MySpace can be a little more better if they improve on one thing and remove another.  What I think is that if they just get rid of the whole posting on your wall thing and just focus on their music selection, bands could then use Myspace as a way to communicate with their fans as of ways to promote album releases and tours.  Now Myspace is the oldest of most well-known social sites but its no excuse for the way it looks and works for its just so poorly and strong together its ugly in my opinion.

Facebook
    Facebook is probably the king of social media sites in my opinion because its been refined to the point of almost perfection in the way its setup,  though that doesn't mean it has no bad things going for it.  Now one the thing about  Facebook is that its always updating and changing everything.

       Now as you can see Facebook's layout is simple and very much easy to use.  Now the only thing about Facebook I don't really like is Zynga,  Because of their business practice.

   So that's my three reviews on three different social media sites.
