2. Facebook
Facebook is used by everyone, but used by no one.
Everyone has an account, but hardly anyone uses it.
3. Twitter
Twitter doesn’t have as many accounts from Truckee,
but it is used a little more and offers more
entertainment than Facebook.
4. Instagram
Instagram isn’t used by a lot of people, but is used
mostly for girls to try to make themselves look good
with pictures and “filters”. It’s more entertaining than
Facebook, but not as interesting as Twitter.
5. Vine
Vine is used mostly by iPhone holders due to the fact
that it is not very good on android phones. Vine shows
6 sec. videos to the viewers and is very entertaining.
However, the videos make noise so it’s difficult to use
in class.
6. Tumblr
Tumblr isn’t used a lot, but its users seem to be loyal.
Tumblr is a lot like if Twitter and Instagram had a baby.
People post pictures and other people can comment on
them.
7. Reddit
Reddit is also not used by many but the few that use it
at Truckee seem to be loyal. Reddit is Twitter’s main
competitor. They are very similar and very different.
8. Snapchat
Snapchat is used by many people at Truckee and is
very fun to use. It lets you send a picture to anyone that
is your friend for 1-10 sec. and allows you to draw on
your picture before sending it.
9. Are These Apps good?
Yes and no. These apps can be very useful in marketing
yourself and letting your talents make a name for you.
However, some people will make fun because they can.
Also, employers often check these social media sites
before hiring so one must be careful and keep this in
mind.
