Myspace vs. Google+

Myspace and Google+ are the same, but different!

Myspace and Google Plus are the same because they have both have hangouts and things like that!

They are different because Myspace is more music oriented, but it also allows you to connect with people that like the same music as you. It can also turn you onto some music that you may never listen to as well. It can give you different taste in music.

Google Plus lets you do hangouts with people in your circle but it really have more features than myspace does because it can allow you to share your screen with others. It also allows video sharing from Youtube.

Internet Music Players

Pandora is an internet radio that is pretty popular. It is defiantly not one of my favorite internet radio. You can skip twelve songs a day but only six songs per station. You can upgrade and pay a monthly fee and get unlimited skips!

This an internet radio that allows you to create customized radio stations. Much like many other internet radios does have an upgrade option with many other features.

Spotify is pretty much like all of the other radios on the internet. Most people pick their favorite one and then thats it there is no changing them. Its got a monthly fee if you would like to pay for features you wouldn't get if you used it for free.

Grooveshark is another internet radio that is pretty much the same as all of the rest. Some have different features but they are all similar in ways.It like all of the rest is free unless you want to upgrade to a better services.

Photo Hosting!

Photobucket- My favorite photo hosting website because it is so easy to use compared to other sites!

Flickr is also really easy to use compared to some other sites!

imageshack is pretty easy to use, but I still like Photobucket much better!

Photoshop! Psykopaint, PicMonkey, Sumopaint, BeFunky, and Photoshop Express Editor

BeFunky is probably my favorite photo editor, because not only can you edit your photos you can make collages! Like this!

On PicMonkey you can edit photos and you can make collages too, but I edited a photo on there.

They are all pretty much the same they just a few different features. Different people prefer different editors, but my personal favorite is BeFunky!

How Social Media has Changed the World!

Social media has made the world a better place in my own opinion. In some cases with cyberbullying it has been bad, but in my personal opinion it has made the world better and easier to communicate with friends, family, and loved ones that you can't physically be with. It has made it easier to communicate with people you went to school with and it also makes it easier not to lose touch with somebody you care about.
Some people take advantage of social media and make peoples lives miserable by bullying them over the internet, but in most cases it really helps people to connect with the world I think. I think that the world would be a total different place if there was no social media, but there wouldn't be near as much communication with people.
I know in my life without social media I probably wouldn't talk to anybody. It also helps when you are in school because you can also send a message to somebody in your class and ask what the homework is or ask for help on the homework. It defiantly makes my life easier.

How Google Changed the World!

Google has changed the world in many different ways. Google has also made life easier in many different ways also. When people don't know the answer to questions the simply say "Go Google it" it has became a verb in itself.

One of the most popular if not the most popular feature of Google is the search feature of Google. That feature pretty much allows any person with access to the internet to search for anything. In today's society there is not many people that own a set of encyclopedias, because of the fact that google knows pretty much everything.

Google Maps is a feature of google that has also changed society, because on Google Maps provides map services that gives you step by step directions. So now people don't have to use road atlases.

There are so many ways google has changed the world for the better. It has made people's life easier in so many ways that can't be named. In my life I have never been without Google. I couldn't imagine what it would be like to not have Google in my life.
