  • Nowadays, many people have social media apps on their phones and computers.

  • Many people use social media to communicate with their friends and family.

  • They also use social media for many other things.

  • Let's talk about the different social media apps. The most famous app is Facebook.

  • Facebook is very popular all around the world.

  • People all around the world use Facebook every day.

  • They use Facebook on their computers, and they use Facebook on their phones.

  • I think more people use Facebook on their phones, not their computers.

  • Facebook was invented in 2004, but it wasn't popular then.

  • I started using Facebook in 2010.

  • When did you start using Facebook? So let's talk about what you can do on Facebook.

  • First of all, you can use it to post text, pictures, and videos.

  • When you post something, all your friends can see it.

  • I don't post much on Facebook.

  • You can also use Facebook to send messages.

  • You can send messages to one person or to a group.

  • You can also follow people and pages on Facebook.

  • I follow some news pages so I can see the news on Facebook.

  • You can do many things on this app, but I don't really like Facebook. Okay, so now let's talk about Instagram.

  • Instagram is the most popular app for young people.

  • People use this app to post pictures and videos.

  • If you like pictures, then you'll probably like Instagram.

  • I don't like Facebook, but I do like Instagram.

  • I like it because it's fun to look at photos.

  • On Instagram, you can follow other people to see their pictures.

  • Some people like following celebrities and other famous people.

  • I don't really like following celebrities.

  • How about you?

  • Do you follow any celebrities on Instagram?

  • Another thing you can do on Instagram is post an Instagram story.

  • You can post many photos and videos to your story.

  • I don't usually post on Instagram, but I look at other people's posts.

  • I think that Instagram is better than Facebook. Okay, so another social media app that people use is Twitter.

  • I don't have Twitter, so I don't really know how to use it.

  • But I know that it's a very popular app all around the world.

  • Many people use this app to follow the news.

  • People post news stories on Twitter.

  • I don't need a Twitter account because I can read the news on Facebook. Another app that young people use is Snapchat.

  • I had Snapchat when I was younger, but now I don't.

  • People use Snapchat to send pictures and short videos to each other.

  • Then, these pictures and videos disappear after you view them.

  • There are many other social media apps, too.

  • The world loves social media. Alright, that's all for today.

  • Leave a comment and tell me which social media app you like best.
