it means these kids have no real social interaction with people on a face to face basis. Everything is through a dam screen. They have no clue what its like to enjoy conversation with someone without typing it. They have no clue what its like getting together and doing things with friends without everyone taking pics with phones and saying "hold up let me out this on instagram", or "hold on let me update my status". Its frigging ridiculous

I don't like it one bit. I don't understand the point of Instagram or snapchat. I use FB to see pics of friends kids, which I do care about, and to see important life events


Uh.. Is having kids the only "important life event"? Because someone is a teenager, there is nothing in their life worthy of sharing with their friends? Gtfo with that.

Instagram is only photos and no bothering with what people have to say on FB, so if anything, it should be easiest to understand.

As far as the restaurant industry goes, instagram is their best outlet.

I thought snapchat was just a way to anonymously text dick pics. I'm so far behind the times with this stuff.

Probably because Twitter is the only social media application that actually possesses some social utility.

Facebook and Twitter have moved on to be part of the social and economic infrastructure. They don't have to be Cool or Edgy any more.

Instagram is part of Facebook, so non commercial?

Can you explain this? I find Twitter to only be good for getting people in trouble.
