Which social media site do you prefer, if any?

Personally, I find myself using Facebook the most because most of the updates I need to get are on there. Twitter is nice, but incredibly simplistic. Google+ has a great layout, but the community is tiny.

Twitter is awesome because it's simplistic. That's the one I use most, by far. Facebook is cool but only for staying in touch with important people like family and friends.

Facebook somewhat cause of the chat thing, rarely use twitter(don't really get the point), and Google+ is alright but I don't have that many friends on it to use it often.

I do actually like its clean format. Lots of my peers just shy away from it because of its limitations, and becasue of that, I don't end up using it that much.

Yeah. The way I see it is that one isn't really a substitute for the other. Facebook's goal is true social networking while Twitter is more for microblogging, sharing content, and being involved in an open forum. Both have their uses.

They are all very annoying, I guess google+ is better in that sense since not many kids use it.

Bunch of fools posting their every thought as though it's important to anyone else. I suppose it's okay if one wants to follow celebrities. But I can't get into that either.

Very few people do that, though. Twitter is a way to share content, participate in a global forum, and get information very quickly, mostly news. Some people may use it to post about their shitty day but that's more a reflection of them being bad at Twitter and not the service itself.

I don't have twitter but I think it's useful for advertising and news. And humour.

I like the simplistic nature of Twitter, and the fact that because you only have a limited number of characters, idiotic arguments are less likely to occur. However Facebook as a little more functionality and provides a better overall means of communication.

Deighn: Google +, I love it's interfase & features more than any other social media site(circles are the ***** & Hangouts crush skype).

Mobile use: Twitter, it was basically built for mobile posting & quick reading on the go.

Userbase: Facebook. For better, mostly worse, everyone & their mom(quite literally) use FB.

I hope G+ starts to get a footing (as I recall it surpased Twitter actually) becuase I love it's interface & features so much.

Google brought their A game in programers, but no one I know IRL uses it regularly.:(
