Social Media

There are a lot of aspects of design that go into all of the different forms of social media. Social media was designed to create personal interaction throughout the world. It is designed to keep up with the current news and trend. It is also designed for mass communication for a specific audience that the user wants to reach out to. All forms of social media are designed to be easy to use for people of all ages. Not all forms of social media are designed for every age group, for example LinkedIn is a social media platform for business professionals. It is a way to connect and market yourself through a professional setting. While as LinkedIn is very formal and professional, Twitter is very informal and targets the younger crowd of teenagers and young adults. Also all forms of social media are designed to reveal information about the user. Sites like Facebook and Instagram shows your friends and followers what interests you through your likes and posts. These things can reveal a lot about of person and their interests. All forms of social media have strong connections with the world of design.
