Today (June 30) is National Social Media Day! What is YOUR favorite form of social media? We’ve shared a tidbit on each of the big ones…
Facebook got its start back in 2003, when Mark Zuckerberg built a website called “Facemash” while attending Harvard University. Today, it’s huge!
Instagram is where photos rule! The photo and video social-sharing sit got its start in 2010, when Kevin Systrom and Mike Krieger started the company. It’s now owned by Facebook.
Twitter is all about short thoughts and ideas. The microblogging social site launched back in 2006.
Snapchat
Snapchat draws among the youngest uses of the social sites. The appeal from the start is that “Snaps” disappear in as little as a few seconds or hours. It started in 2011.
Pinterest launched in 2009, and what makes it unique is how users often “pin” a creative image that inspires a project, fashion statement, craft– anything to inspire a new idea.
