    Facebook, LinkedIn, Ning, MySpace: which do you use?

    I use LinkedIn myself, for making professional contacts, but I was wondering what the majority of you use. What are the best aspects of each of these social networks? It is the connectivity, or the use of technologies such as Ajax that allow you to receive updated info without refreshing the page?

    Oh, and welcome to the Lounge!

    What I use

    Personally, I use LinkedIn for my professional contact networking and Facebook for my personal contact networking (I'm sure this is pretty common). My impression of MySpace is that it's more for the teenage crowd (and some music lovers). I think LinkedIn and Facebook are more on the way up, where MySpace might be on its way down. Just my thoughts.

    Best of luck

    I use Facebook and Twitter to inform about my activity. LinkedIn serves me to gain industry contacts.

    None of them. As well as other apps such as Viber, Whatsapp, Snapcacebook and others thathat and so on. I am concerned and think a lot about protecting my personal data. And I think that such big mosters as Facebook have incredible Big Data gurus in their teams know how to get your data and how to use it. Also, do not forget about different apps such as Snapchat tracker, and other spying apps that can be used to monitor your social accounts. So, no social accounts and apps - no problems
