Facebook allows users to connect with friends and family by posting statuses, sharing photos, videos, music and links. It also features pages that users can follow and see updates from in their newsfeed. Google+ is similar to Facebook with circles to organize friends and the ability to share information within those circles. YouTube is the world's largest video sharing website where users can search, watch, and upload videos. Instagram is a mobile app where users can take pictures, add filters, and share photos with followers.

2. Facebook is one of the most popular websites to connect with
friends and family now days. You can post statuses to let update
people on what you are doing and share things that interest you such
as pictures, videos, music, and links. There are also pages that you
can “like” and stuff they post on their page will pop up on your
newsfeed. Another feature of Facebook is messenger. If you have a
smart phone you will be able to download the messenger app which
is supposed to make it easier to talk to your friends (most of the
time it is just a pain to use).

3. Google+ is sort of like Facebook in some aspects. On here you have
circles that you can add your friends to. You can make your own
circles but the default circles are family, friends, aquaintances, and
following. When you add someone as a friend it prompts you to add
that person to a circle. In these circles you can share information
meant only for those people in that group. In the following circle is
where pages you like get placed. The chat feature for Google+ is
called Hangout and is just like Messenger for Facebook.

4. YouTube is the most popular video sharing website in the world. On
this website you can search videos or create and upload your own.
You do not have to have an account to search and watch videos but if
you want to upload your own, you have to create and account. There
is an educational side of this website where many teachers post
videos over lessons.

5. Instagram is a free mobile app that you can get on any mobile device.
You can take pictures and add filters (effects) to the pictures and
share them. On the photos you share other people that follow your
account can see and “like”.
