As Yan Rong said in the blog ( Here is the link:https://blogs.ubc.ca/yanrong/2013/11/14/facebook-is-experiencing-the-stage-of-plumment/) :”With the increasing number of substitutes, the advantages of Facebook, fun and fresh, are no longer distinguishable. ” I agree with this. There a lot of social networks in today’s internet. Pinterest is an example which is fun and fresh. I haven’t heard Pinterest until yesterday my friend and I analysed this special social networks. I found that it is a really interesting tool on the interet.

It has its PoP that it is a user friendly website. It can raise people’s interest to things that they like as well as you can learn some useful suggestions from others. You can meet friends with same hobbies with you and form a group to make plans to hang out sometimes. Unlike facebook, instagram, it connects different social networking sites and other websites in their website, rather than only focusing on one. Right as the website says: “Pinterest is a tool for collecting and
organizing things you love.” And then you can share it with your friend.

I advocate this kind of social networks for it has a positive effect that it will attract people’s interest to do things. While facebook, instagram only focus on authors’ feeling instead of inspiring others.
