Facebook

Instagram is a fun and very quirky way to share pictures among your friends and family. Instagram allows businesses to publish pictures and have them as a sponsor to appear on different peoples instagram feeds worldwide to encourage them to buy their products. Instagram allows your account to be linked to any other accounts you may have such as Facebook and twitter. This means that when you post a picture on instagram that it can be published on Facebook and twitter and can be seen by a wider audience. 

Instagram allows you to post and like pictures and write various comment about the picture. It also allows you to tag your friends again allowing your picture to be seen by a wider audience that you may not follow.

 
Instagram allows you to personalise your pictures by changing the different effects that the picture will be published in. Instagram also allows you to use hash tags which once again helps to get the post seen by a wider audience. Instagram also allows you to post short video clips and it could be useful for a business as it could be a short demo they are publishing or a bit of information about their products.

You can connect with other people on instagram by following their accounts which allows you to see anything that they may post as the post it. Instagram also allows you to send personal messages to various people at a time this also allows you to connect with other users whilst using instagram but this way it is done privately.


 
There are various numbers of key issues surrounding social media etiquette. Some people post inappropriate pictures that may cause offence to others or just be hurtful to others. Some people create fake accounts and post pictures pretending to be someone else and it could cause a lot of trouble for the person that has the account made pretending to be them.

















Facebook is a social networking site that allows you to send friend requests to other people and it is also used to keep in contact with family and friends across the world. It was started in 2004 and is the biggest social media website. In 2010 there were 400 million people using Facebook. 



People use Facebook for various different reasons. The reasons vary depending on what country you come from but the main reason they use Facebook is to keep in contact with family and friends that they may not be able to see every day.

Facebook allows you to personalise your profile by adding pictures, posting statuses. You can make your profile private which means you are restricting who can see certain information on your profile.

Facebook allows you to tag friends in your statuses and anything that you see on Facebook and this helps to make different pictures and statuses seen by a wider audience but you can also restrict who can see your posts.
Facebook is quite strict in what you can post on your page so if you find something that is inappropriate or offensive you can report it to Facebook and if they agree then they will take the picture or comment down.
You can like group pages or create your own group pages. Some of the groups are great as they offer the chance to win some of their products which most people love the chance to win a freebie.
