where content are created by user of website which covers different
variety of social media i-e from small chatrooms to heavy search engines
and microbloggings. Small Social networks plateform like Facebook,
twitter, whatsapp and youtube has created a lot of interest in public,
academic and business sectors. These Small Plateform created good
opportunities for business in modern era . These types of social media
networks has great impacts on our daily life.

friendly facilities have been created by these social networks to our

online activites give a lot of informations which were not available
before. These available information are very high valuble to us from
different point of view. In Past when we have to collect data or
information about any group of people, any religion, cast, race or an area

different social networks. For example Wikipedia does not allow you to
create same contents which are already created while face and twitter
give permission to create same contents many times as you want.
Another difference in social networks are some social networks need
accounts when you want to use like facebook and twitter and you have
to sign up for them for the first time etc while some don’t need an
account when you want to use like google and youtube etc you can use
such website directly.
