Which is the best in your opinion? I know they all suck, but you have to pick one.

I think twitter is the best. You get news instantly about things you care about and it doesn't have nearly as much of the old people bullshite as facebook.

I would say Twitter but I still don't know how to use it.

Can't really compare Facebook and Twitter IMO. They are two completely different things.

Girls seem to use instagram to post their slutty pics. So I'll go with that.

tigerdroppings for news

I like instagram because there is very little if any advertising and it's just pictures so I don't have to read about people.

I really dislike what facebook is now. I keep it to contact people but never just browse. way too much advertisement, people sharing things, etc. when it was "hey, this is what's going on" I didn't mind it. not it's all "share this and maybe get free shite". clogs up the actual news.

I see facebook collapsing soon.

Twitter. You can get real news updates and not your aunt's latest political screed. Much easier to tailor a timeline to your interests.

I haven't really used Facebook in around three or four years but I keep up a page because id be barraged with questions if I deactivated it. It was really useful back in college, but I started college the same year it arrived on grounds and it was a different beast back then. More of a public bulletin board than a site to share what you ate for lunch

All 3.

Comparing them is like saying car vs motorcycle vs scooter

If you have groceries, you need a car.

It's easier to park a scooter or motorcycle.

Twitter is the most-useless, but it's good for FAST updates on things you like, especially sports (for me). Don't waste your time following athletes, follow the reporters.

Facebook is the best of the 3, as it allows you to connect with more people. It's also extremely boring. Unless you are hiding out, you should have one It blows my mind when I meet someone under 40 and they are not on Facebook. Even if you only check it once a week, it's good if you want to connect with people you've known.

Instagram- It's pictures. Only pictures. Do you like to show off when you are on a vacation, or at a ballgame, or maybe a pic of that big steak you are eating? It's good for that. Not much else. My friends made me sign up. I maybe check it once a week. In 6 months I think I've posted 10 pictures, mainly of the beach, food, and at Saints/LSU games.

I completely disagree. I get all of the news i am interested in there and a lot of my friends post more on twitter than facebook these days.

95% of the Tweets on my TL are garbage.

I probably need to mute a lot of people I follow.
