Social media is exploding, it is difficult to a) choose the platform that best suits you and b) the platform your friends are using. There is little point in building a fantastic profile on a particular platform only to be shunned by all your friends socialising on another social media service.

Of course, the overuse of social media tends to limit social interactions, a certain irony exists in such a domain. The advantage for me is, I have made many friends overseas from travelling, this is a great opportunity for me to keep in touch and communicate with my overseas friends.

Social media is evolving, new platforms are popping up weekly, the take-up of new media is driven by the young upwardly mobile crowd. I am wondering what will evolve next, the hardware to run such applications, the social media platforms or limitations of the telecommunications networks?
