On the other hand, the other common website or tools in social networking is Instagram. Instagram is an online mobile photo - sharing, video - sharing, and social networking service that enables its users to take pictures and videos, and share them either publicly or privately on the app, as well as through a variety of other social networking platforms, such as Facebook, Twitter and Flickr. Instagram was established at October 2010. The founder is Kevin Systrom and Mike Krieger. Then, there got some advantages and disadvantages for Instagram. The advantages are including:
- It can increases the artistic ability by taking pictures at different scenerios.

In brief, the privacy terms of Instagram allow to protect our photos from the unknown people. However, the rules keep changing so, one should always look at privacy terms before signing to Instagram. You could also buy real Instagram followers. Nowadays, Instagram have establish auto delete system in order to increase the protection of users. For example, the video and photos will be automatic delete after 24 hours if the user don't change the setting before posting the videos or photos. Since now they have already many competition, such as, Snapchat, SNS Korea, and etc. So, that I wish Instagram can make improvement to their system or service in order to protect the privacy or users and increase the users.
Twitter
Finally, the popular websites or tools that know in social Networking is Twitter. Twitter is an online news and socail networking service where users post and read short 140 - character messages called ''Tweets''. Registered users can post and read tweets, but those who are unregistered can only read them. Users access Twitter through the website interface, SMS or mobile device app. Twitter Inc, is based in San Francisco and has more than 25 offices around the world. After that, Twitter was created in March 2006 by Jack Dorsey, Noah Glass, Biz Stone, and Evan Williams and launched in July 2006, whereby the service rapidly gained worldwide popularity.

In conclude, Twitter is a good social media tools for business and to improve the relationship between each other. Although I don't know Twitter very well, but it is a excellent tools to help people to connect and communicate with each other. Since nowadays, they have many competitors, such as Whatapps, Wechat, Viber and etc. But i think Twitter still is very famous among the world. so, that i wish Twitter can continue to do promote and updating their functions, then get more users in future.
