Twitter, Myspace, Facebook
If you are like others who are addicted to receive automated responses from social networking websites where someone or the other is trying to add people to their group of friends, then you must be aware of the importance of such websites. Sometimes people just ignore such things, but once they know that a really good friend has initiated the automated email then they start thinking about it a bit and like the addiction starts.
MySpace, Facebook, and Twitter have incredibly grown in popularity due to the process of simple networking and sharing with friends and colleagues. Everyday people spend hours to constantly check their status updates, comments, and added friends.
Facebook and MySpace are two well established and popular websites with a lot of visitors. On the other hand Twitter is a much smaller but growing website which is devoted to communication. The important thing about these websites is that they are highly addictive. If we compare the three, there are some compelling trends that can be seen. MySpace focuses heavily on creating and customizing their online profiles whereas Facebook emphasize on different features like interacting with applications, music and people. Twitter addicts are more engaged in exploring sites that allow a user to know what their personal contacts are doing.
Even though Facebook is popular but you just can’t hide yourself on Facebook anymore. There are known problem of managing Facebook if you are a highly known person. Similarly Twitter only good if you invite your friends and connect with them otherwise it is like a typical blog. There is a text box where you can write about your life and all these messages are automatically sent to all of your friends and all their messages appear on yours. Myspace is the cool working class thing for everybody but there are some annoying bands that keep adding you all the time.
Apart from their disadvantages these online communities which are free to join allow you to create your own profile, browse others’ profiles and find people you know. They keep you engaged all the time.
