What Different Versions or Varieties of Social Media Exist?

There a huge range of different varieties of social media technologies.

Some of the types of social media technologies are:

• Social networks

Social network sites are places where people communicate with one another. Social network sites allow users to create posts, sharing their thoughts. Users can also comment on one another posts, share images and videos, as well as messaging others. Facebook is one of the biggest social networks worldwide.

• Reviews and Ratings

Review and Rating technologies are great. They allow you to review things such as hotels, restaurants, shops and products. They also allow you to read other peoples reviews on these things, which can be good when you are wanting to make a decision about where you want to stay or eat, or which product you want to buy.

• Q&A

Q&A sites are good if you want to know something, like how many eggs to add a recipe. Often if you search your question on the internet, someone else will have already asked it, and a Q&A site may come up in the search results – this allows you to then go on to read the responses to their question. If no one has asked the question before, you can go onto a Q&A site such as Yahoo answers and ask the question yourself, people will then reply to what you are asking to give you advice.

• Social marketplace

Social marketplaces are a good place for selling and buying. Facebook now has its own marketplace and allows people to sell products such as furniture and cars. It can be a good place for selling as people can narrow down the search to the specific area they are looking for, as well as the cost of the product and the type of product. Social marketplaces are a good place to get secondhand things.

• Video

Video technologies are used to share and watch videos. You are able to create your own videos for others to view, as well as viewing other peoples videos. Many famous people use video technologies to share their music videos, as well as many famous singers getting famous through technologies such as YouTube. Video technologies will also allow you to communicate with other users, by liking or disliking their videos, and posting comments on their videos.

• Pictures

There are a range of technologies that allow you to share images with others.
