Social Networks

Nowadays, people, mainly teenagers, use social networks for almost everything: to do homework, to buy things that aren’t available in their villages, to search for information about everything and for many more things. Actually, if the Internet wasn't available in our daily life it would be much harder to obtain what we wish or need.



We can download social networks in many “markets” like Google play or the app store. They are mainly known as apps. These apps could be free or paid, but the most apps are the free ones.



Some of the common apps in a teenager's mobile phone are:



INSTAGRAM: This app is mainly used to upload photos or videos with other people, mainly with your friends.
FACEBOOK: This one is one of the most used apps around the world. In this one you can upload photos, videos, gifs; and also you can interact with other people, write posts, tell the whole world your thoughts, etc.


TWITTER: Actually this app is like Facebook, but with a limitation in writing. You can only tell what you think in 140 characters and a maximum of 4 photos per tweet. This one is also one of the most used around the world, but with Facebook still being the first one.

PINTEREST: This app is less known by teenagers, but actually is one of my favorite social media apps. It consists of uploading photos that allows people to get inspiration from other ones and sharing more ideas. It has many categories like: art, DIY, science and nature, food, sports, etc.
 SNAPCHAT: This social media app is quite enjoyable. It allows uploading photos or videos with a limit of 10 seconds. These photos only last 24 hours, and you can also send them to your friends but no one could see them and will be deleted when they see them. It includes filters and some funny “faces”.

There are many more apps, very useful ones and also some of them very useless. The world is moved by social networks, it is a revolutionary movement that day by day is taking a giant step forward. Maybe in the near future we will be able to talk with our family or friends with our minds by just pushing a button. We will look forward to seeing that. 

I hope you enjoy it. Thanks for reading it!

  1. My favorite social networks are snapchat and instagram because in instagram normally people edit and work more on their photos and there are some that are really good and everybody can see them, also i like snapchat because is more natural and real, however most of the social networks are very similar.

  3. Being honest I wouldn't imagine nowadays life without social media, they play a big role in our lives and they are being used more and more. It is a funny and interactive way of sharing your thoughts, photos or even hobbies. -Soumiya.

  4. I think that social apps are a very enjoyable way for teenangers to be in contact,in the other hand, sometimes we abuse of them and we don't know how to control ourselves. Everything we upload on the internet, will be there forever.

    I think that these apps are very usefful to talk with your friends, when they aree far away from you. Therefore, you can also maintain a friend relationship for a long time and see how they have fun in their free time
