#MYFAVORITESOCIALMEDIA

Personally My favorite social media platform is Twitter. Although it has changed throughout the years, ranging from Facebook to Instagram, Twitter is always what I end up coming back to in the end.

One of the best things about Twitter, in my opinion, is its networking potential. You can share industry news with other people in your niche, participate in Twitter chats, and connect with brands. Twitter chats in particular are a great opportunity to share your thoughts and ideas on specific topics with other people who work in your field. Users of Twitter can also participate in Live Video.

I know that Twitter has been a positive tool for myself both personally and professionally speaking. Through Twitter chats and making an effort to engage with others, I have created not only a group of like-minded marketers but a group of friends. When I went through a period of job loss this past year, posting on Twitter helped gain me freelance opportunities, support, and new potential jobs.

In addition, Twitter now offers a “Moments” feature which allows people to see the news and interesting things that have happened. While it can be overwhelming, in a sense, to see something like Hurricane Harvey happening through Twitter Moments, it is also amazing to see how quickly news travels. In fact, during everything going on with Hurricane Harvey, users on Twitter were able to share their locations and the locations of other people who needed rescue.
here are my opinion on why twitter is my favorite

1.TWITTER LETS USERS POST IN ANONYMITY
Oppressive social sites insist that users publish under their real names, because it increases the value of people’s personal data. The platforms claim they make the real-names-only insistence for safety reasons, but there’s nothing safe about forcing everyone to identify themselves in an unvetted public place. How safe would it be if everyone who walked into a night club was forced to wear a T-shirt with their legal name on it? Clearly, it would be a stalker’s, burglar’s, mugger’s, blackmailer’s and rapist’s charter. That’s the reality of real-name-only policies.
2.TWITTER IS A RELIABLE GOLDMINE FOR RECENT HISTORY
Twitter combines a powerful, date-sensitive search facility with strict opposition to tweet editing, to create an incredibly reliable reference resource for news, events and cultural evolution. Unlike Google, Twitter will, within the bounds of its own lifespan, conclusively tell you when a trend began, when an event happened, and how real people reacted.
3.TWITTER IS THE FASTEST SPREADER OF INFORMATION
You can say it’s down to the simplicity of the retweet system, or the trend analysis, or the bite-sized format that keeps all information sharp and to-the-point. But none of these things would mean much without the breadth and size of Twitter’s userbase, or the confidence Twitter’s anonymous enclaves give users to actually spread information without fear of losing their jobs or otherwise paying a price. When news organisations want real-time updates on events as they happen, they don’t prioritise Facebook, or LinkedIn, or the remnants of G+. Or any of the small social platforms that claim to be the future of social media. They go to Twitter, because Twitter spreads information fastest, and best.
4.TWITTER IS NOT A WALLED GARDEN
Some social networking platforms deliberately conceal all their content from anyone who isn’t logged in, so as to force non-members to sign up. This closed ecosystem is normally known as a “walled garden”, and it’s bad for anyone who wants maximum online reach. The walled garden strategy is fine on platforms where it’s in members‘ interests to regulate access to their content (subscription sites, for example). But if members’ work is being boxed in purely so the site owners can harvest other people’s email addresses, the system is extremely selfish.
5.TWITTER IS ACCESSIBLE WITHOUT COOKIES
Twitter uses cookies, but it’s not dependent upon them. So if you block cookies, you can still view the same content as logged-out users who accept cookies.
6.TWITTER GIVES ANY USER DIRECT ACCESS TO A HUGE RANGE OF CELEBRITIES AND INFLUENTIAL FIGURES
One of the reasons Twitter became so big is that it established a direct line between ordinary people and their idols. There’s nowhere else on Earth that important people pay more attention to the direct thoughts of the voiceless and meek. You may not get a reply, but unless you’re tweeting megastars, world leaders, inactives or bots, you’ll almost definitely be heard.
7.TWITTER CAN CHANGE YOUR LIFE
Okay, so it’s people on Twitter who can change your life – not Twitter itself – but it’s the people you won’t find on Facebook or LinkedIn who provide the best lessons. Twitter is where I learned that I don’t have to endure things I don’t like in order to protect other people’s feelings. That I don’t need to absorb other people’s pressure. That I don’t need to explain myself once, let alone twice. That I don’t owe favours – even to friends… I learned, on Twitter, to stress less, ignore more, say “no” more often, and most of all, stop trying to be perfect, because apart from wasting a lot of time, it’s boring.
