In this day and age, it seems as if everyone is using social media. Teens especially, it seems, are particularly fond of Facebook, Twitter, Pinterest and Instagram.
Social media is simple. All that's needed is a phone or computer
with Internet access. A person can be just about anywhere and be
able to catch up with their family halfway across the world, or
plan a party with friends.
One thing that people use social media for is to play games with
each other. Facebook has lots of games that are integrated into the
social experience.
Social media can also be beneficial to the user. It allows the
user to market themselves or their work, and gain inspiration from
seeing the work of others.
