Google+ (pronounced and sometimes written as Google
Plus) is a social networking and identity service that is
owned and operated by Google Inc.
It is the second-largest social networking site in the world
after Facebook. 540 million monthly active users are part
of the Identity service site, by interacting socially with
Google+'s enhanced properties, like Gmail, +1 button,
and YouTube comments.
4. Strengths & Weakness
Strengths
Google is the most popular search
engine globally
Large user base (369 Million
active users and growing)
Integrated with all of Google
services including Gmail, Youtube,
Maps, Chrome, Google Play)
More and more services that use
Google as a signing-in service

Facebook
No access to Google services in
some countries
5. Opportunities & Threats
Opportunities
Google uses mass amounts of
analytics to their advantage in
hosting content and being able to
search that content
Integrating Google+ posts,
profiles and other content into
Google searches would increase
interest in their service
Mobile market continues to grow
very quickly with a large quantity
of that base being Android, which
comes with Google+ and its
services pre-installed
Threats
Facebook and Twitter both stand
poised to increase their market
shares
Many other social networks are
cropping up that cater to their
own country and language of
origin
6. Twitter
Twitter is an online social networking service that
enables users to send and read short 140-character
messages called "tweets". Registered users can
read and post tweets, but unregistered users can
only read them.
7. Strengths & Weakness

Gets tons of publicity.
Is a thing on its own
(almost no competition in
microblogging).
It is simple but powerful.
It is 100% social in an all-social
web.
It is free.
Has a strong brand name
already.
Allows other apps to tie in
to a user’s account and
provides secure
authentication for other
applications (OAuth).
Businesses like it a lot.

coming from the top 10% of
the users.

approx. 40%.
8. Opportunities & Threats
Opportunities
It can become a dominant
search engine.
It is becoming the biggest social
media marketing tool.
Every site can tie in to Twitter,
making every website instantly

It may become the dominant way
for businesses to communicate
with their customers.
Threats
It got too much publicity in a
short time. May get burned out.
It is getting dangerously
spammy.
Has no solid revenue model.
“Fake” accounts, especially for
celebrities, are rampant. It is
difficult to tell who is really who
Paid twitter streams may hurt the
brand image.
Facebook may get even more
tweety and compete face-to-face
with Twitter in microblogging
sphere.
Friendfeed and identi.ca may
grow and steal market share.
Acquisition by a bigger player
(such as Google) may disappoint
early adopters and loyal users
9. Pinterest
Pinterest is an online tool used to share various
articles, webpages, pictures and work that is
interesting to a user. You can follow your friends, or
other users who post items that are of interest to
you, and you virtually “pin” an item onto a board
where you can go and look at it later.
Pinterest launched in March of 2010, and since then
has gained a large following. By January 2012, it
has garnered 11.7 million unique users. It continues
to grow and is the third largest social media, behind
Facebook and Twitter.

links rather than storing on
your computer
Easy to share ideas with
people from other areas
across the world

Visually appealling
Simple to find, save, and
share ideas
Weaknesses
Most current Education
items are literacy and
numeracy based
Most items are for Primary
and Junior students
All items posted have to be
connected to a website
Most items that get pinned
are for Do It Yourself items,
fashion, beauty, or food
Searches are not always
relevant if looking for
something specific
11. Opportunities & Threats
Opportunities
Could have advertising on
Pinterest to earn revenue
Could be made more
appealing to male
demographic
Potential to have more
education links
They have updated their
interface to meet the needs
of the growing number of
journalists using Pinterest,
and could do something
similar for teachers
Creating more sub-categories
for education
Threats
Currently educational
resources are often shared
between people in the
same board
There are websites that
they could link to that often
have teaching resources
available
E-learning/blended learning
courses that are becoming
more popular offer teachers
another resource for
activities
Legal copyright issues
12. LinkedIn
LinkedIn’s (NYSE: LNKD) stock is near all-time
highs. The rapidly growing social media company
has been one of the best performers among
numerous other Internet companies that went public
in recent years. The company is growing rapidly
across the board and building its presence across

Strengths
Credible professional
accounts
Popular brand amongst
corporates giving huge
potential

filtering of searches
Detailing of profile is very
effective Professionals
