The Differences in Platforms

Social media is a popular and large part of everyone's daily life. We use many different kinds of s platforms in order to do preform different tasks. Guy Kawasaki gives a few tips on social media in his last chapter of the book. This gave me the idea of naming some pros and cons I find in social media ranging from Facebook to LinkedIn.

A big pro to the platform is that it automatically sorts out posts for your viewing. This allows users not to be swarmed with spam accounts and unwanted post and instead only shows relative post. A con to Facebook is that it is no longer used as often by younger generations which makes it more of a formal and business platform which brought down its popularity.

Twitter is the next to be talked about. This platform is immensely popular to the younger generations and has many different uses. A pro to Twitter is it easy to keep in touch and see what your friends and accounts that you follow are doing and posting. There is also a limit to characters which prevents large post taking up a large amount of your feed. A con to Twitter is that there is often unprofessional post on the feed which makes people be careful on what content they follow.

The final one I wish to discuss is LinkedIn. This platform differs greatly from the previous two as its primary use is for business. The pro to LinkedIn is that business can easily find job candidates, communicate with other businesses and post professional content. The con is that the platform is not used for casual content which prevent it from acquiring a younger generation of users.

Social media is an invaluable resource for people of all ages and is continuously evolving. Social media keeps people connected and allows the exchanging of content and business a breeze.
