We have been using social networking sites like Facebook, Twitter and YouTube. Have you ever wondered about other social networking sites which still run now without popularity? Though they are not popular like Facebook or Twitter or YouTube, they still have their unique features. There should be a specific reason behind the biggest social networking sites why they became popular. People are much driven towards Facebook and Twitter just because of the unique features they bought. User interface is one of the important aspect to be considered before they could design a social networking site. In that case, I can say that Twitter and Facebook really gives an interface which is much easier to users of all age groups. There are some social networking sites you do not know or you haven't heard of.
Initially, when we got an internet connection, our online presence was much seen on Orkut and when days passed by, we moved to MySpace and finally to Facebook and Twitter. Now, I could see some people moving from Facebook to Google+ which really combines the concept of Facebook and Twitter. We still do not know where people would go in future. As far now, business people are finding much profit from Social networking sites like Facebook. They even find customers on Facebook. Business is now done through technology.
