Overview of new social networks

Facebook,Twitter, Tumblr,Google +,Path,Foursquare,


Facebook and Twitter users quickly tamed. Are born with them new habits, new habits. Internet users have never had as much desire to communicate, to tell live whatever reason. Tweets, articles, pictures taken now, to share music, the time is now to transparency. Everything said, everything is told, everything and anything. It is now important to exist on a network, this popularity has become a challenge to social success. As if it was vital not to be forgotten, for always being there, connected, live. The quality is not always, but used properly, these networks are still allowed to maintain relationships, to maintain them between distant relatives. The once remote and irregular contacts are now ancient history as long as everyone is connected.

But we also know how these networks incur risks to their users, whether the practice is too innocent. He had to learn new tools to manage without markers, no other similar previous experience. It is by making mistakes, realizing that the tool also included defects, once the excitement passed, now that we understand the stakes. And yet, they do for the moment to draw and a few years, some discover how their network could influence whether or not their lives.

Created in the early 2000s, like Facebook, which emerged in 2006, networks have become an everyday habit. Facebook and Twitter, initiators of the movement, must be continually renewed again and again to generate the same interest. The first multiplies the applications and features, the second is riding on a simple concept and just as powerful.

But competition arrives, she is emerging. It is not yet subject to dethrone the giant Facebook, but to offer an alternative to users. Of the touch in the same way, but in different ways. About his life, make superficial statutes, it is not really their niche. If the share is the priority, you raise some networks by allowing you to express your passions, your creativity. The networks have not finished being born on the canvas, and know more or less success, as appropriate.

It is a particular network known in France. Tumblr has been very successful in the U.S., part of the 'leaders' social networks. Facebook launched a year later, he also offers to share messages, photos and videos. Users are primarily English-speaking and just get on the network page, accessible to everyone without having to account to realize that the picture is primarily development.
Tumblr seems to appeal to a highly targeted audience, because of its interface of its own. This specificity has earned fewer users. The network is mainly used for Internet users who want to show their creations, their photos. Artists, designers, stylists, photographers, etc. ..., it is usually encountered profiles. Tumblr is seen as a blog where everyone expresses his work. Finally, the network wants to be very confidential, and that's certainly what attracts the most users. Do not fall into the network too "popular". A French version is available since 2011, but Tumblr has failed to break into the hexagon.

Tumblr thus appears as already too "old" in the networking world. Pinterest him, is more recent. Younger then, he has nevertheless been a runaway success since its launch. Last February, he reckoned, nothing in the USA, a community of 11.7 million users. Launched in March 2010, the site still operates by invitation. His trip across the channel does not happen right away and it is finally only a few months that we speak of him in France. Pinterest also remains very discreet, but could find a much better fate in the hex with Tumblr.
The concept of Pinterest wants him as different from Facebook. Literally, Pinterest offers to pin your interests. To understand this, he is often compared to its interface "pin board" on which we would pin a photo, a note, a memory, a theater ticket, etc. ... Here it is also about sharing his passions, his least-d'âmes states. Here, we do not play the farmer, we share his culture and his passions. Not necessarily the general public, is to dedicate Pinterest again to those who create or passionate users who want to share deep elements of their life stories or lighter, in another context.

Google + is probably the epitome of a network similar to Facebook too and therefore difficult to seduce. Let us remember this launch with great fanfare orchestrated by Google, proud to serve it back on the window, hoping to get his card in the deck and enjoy a lucrative field. First and freely accessible by invitation, Google + was a real fad. The number of users has increased rapidly in January 2012 to reach a community of 90 million subscribers worldwide.
But we can not say however that the network is particularly active since a recent study published earlier this year, and refuted by Google, has demonstrated that members of Google + only stayed connected as three minutes a month against more than six hours on Facebook. As you strive to do the same thing and arriving too late in the battle, Google + has not overly attractive. Some even speak of a network dedicated to male geeks, but they have repatriated their main interest on Facebook, their wall and left without comment a little dreary.

Tablets and smartphones have proliferated in recent years, the user is no longer tied to their computer. Highly mobile, now he needs the appropriate tools and networks have the answer by offering dedicated solutions. Facebook failed to take into account the rapidly changing, and Zuckerberg's network just to put right. Moreover, Facebook combines the purchases of mobile applications, and as Glancee Instagram lately. But on mobile, it is not about being a big name to exist, specific applications for smartphones are born and know, from this side too, a real success. What could be easier than staying connected with supports that are always with you?

Path, in particular, was first concerned to reach iPhone users eventually the Android mobile. Path's policy is to get to the point by offering to have a very limited list of friends with whom you can really keep in touch and share links and personal comments. So ended the friends list of over 300 people most of whom are only strangers they meet at a time of life. The application is successful with those who love to communicate constantly. Reactivity of the mobile forces, poster is obviously easier.

But also on mobile, you need to know to play the card of difference. Facebook is ubiquitous, closely resembling Path, start-ups are having to be creative and play the card of novelty. We no longer Instagram, the photo application that allows you to add filters to your shots and give them a different style. Instagram is a network, where you can have your page with your shots. So your friends can follow you and know your life through pictures only. As you can access their pages or so dedicated to celebrities here. We do not care a bit that is Justin Bieber's hair cut, some fans may be more interested in the latest pictures of his tour. Or the Obama campaign.

Foursquare was one of the first Social Mobile to emerge, since established in 2009. The application has also played the card of originality. In addition to proposed specific tools and micro-blogging social network, Foursquare offers geolocation. Depending on your position, you can meet your contacts near you. The tool is simple and easy and affects all owners of terminals, since it works under all OS at the time. The success is also interested in more. In the U.S., the application works particularly well. The start-up has indeed created partnerships with shops, stores and restaurants. Also, the user has stores offering deals and other promotions near your location. The system has recipe especially the United States. This is also same kind of success is profit that may be trying to get Facebook, recently buying an application similar

In the field of geolocation, Foursquare for a password too old. New applications arrive and offer an even more advanced concept. This is the case of Banjo, a fairly recent implementation has definitely meant to make you meet other people. The application, available on iPhone and Android, lets you see who is logged on around you, the users known or unknown, a member of any social network. Twitter, Foursquare, Facebook, you have access to all the news people around you. Rest assured, only public information is accessible. The contents of private networks is not affected by Banjo. No need here to create an account, simply run the program on your phone. Banjo advocates social discovery, the encounter with strangers, more so unknown that it eventually, with whom you have already discussed all subjects found to initiate the contact. A network that should interest the seducers in bars, parks, etc. ...

But on mobile like on PC, your privacy is at stake Applications that have caught on confidentiality are numerous. Path has paid the price, also Twitter. It will therefore once again for your vigilance and your personal responsibility to publish content suscptible been made public. In all cases, social networks are increasing, some stand when others fail to make the link to his community.

Young for the vast majority of them, only the years will determine who stood out and keep the public interest. But constantly changing, it is not clear that our current systems are the same tomorrow. Not everyone may have no time to speak for public loyalty. A public increasingly demanding, which will always be attracted by the news and the most original features as each other.
