What are your favorite social sites?
I find Twitter and Tumblr the most amusing sites on the internet, so I'm going to have to say those two are my favorites. Facebook also entertains me but I only use it for, like, liking stuff and sharing pictures of Justin Bieber.

I want to join your club, but I don't really do social media much anymore. Here's a little of my info:

PC Username: Bruce Banner
Handles: Instagram: natelikescandy
Reason for joining: Want to chat with fun new friends on here. :)

Topic: The only social media site that I get on anymore is Instagram. While social media i a great way to communicate with friends and people, most of the time I see people getting too obsessed with them. I don't know, most social media sites like Facebook doesn't interest me anymore. I do enjoy looking at my friends' photos on Instagram however.

Reason for joining: I'm a social media....junkie? I really like it because keeping in touch with friends outside of PC is pure awesomeness.

What are your favorite social sites?
I was once a Twitter addict, but I got bored. So I moved to Tumblr, and as of today it is my favorite site. You can connect with people whom you have interests in easily. Most of the time I go on there to talk/blog about NASCAR.

In all honesty, I don't really log on Wattpad that much haha. I haven't even published my story yet; it's just sitting there stupidly, waiting for me to show it to the world. Which is probably never gonna happen but oh well.

Basically the above mentioned. I use Facebook and Twitter the most, but am more active on Twitter than on Facebook. I only use Google+ for Google Hangouts and following AKB48 members though, so it's not really counted.

Honestly, what is this Wattpad thing? I've never heard of such a social networking site in my life haha.

I don't use it either. XD I prefer Mibba over wattpad. The community is much nicer, and I have not run into any problems. They are extremely helpful there. Plus, you have a much higher chance of your stories being noticed. :3

What are your favorite social sites? Mostly Twitter--it's quick and easy to do and whatnot, and I figure...since it's the one I go to the most, that it's my favorite, anyway. Facebook is okay, and Tumblr is a blog site...not a social network, so.

What do you use social sites for?

Mostly to keep in contact with peeps in a personal manner. I have a few PC members on Facebook, and most of my followers on Twitter are PC members. However, Facebook is where I get in contact with my family mostly, but I'm perfectly fine with allowing friends to check out my personal stuff. :P Also, if I want to send a message to someone that I can't reach via text, phone call, etc., then I'll use social media as a last resort (because they're more likely to "read" my texts/not answer my calls. Had that happen to me before xD)

Hah, yeah. I think Twitter has become more of a platform where you can spill your boredom juice all over your followers. But it could be a bad thing because followers may get annoyed. I would go for tumblr for that. People are more likely to reblog your random awesomeness and think it's cool. xD

Oh, and on Facebook, I was an event organizer for my niece's birthday party a couple months ago, and my sister refused to make physical invitations, solely because the family lived far apart. So I photoshopped an invitation, and created an event that invited those who needed to be invited. It actually turned out to be a success! 90% of the people that were invited actually showed up because of that electronic invite. It goes to show that social media and technology has changed so much.

I use them for many reasons, actually! For Twitter, just to put cool and deep stuff up, and I guess... Facebook for games? That's pretty much it, though. ):

Reason for joining: I've been a regular user of social media for 2 years, and while I don't have as many active handles as I used to (yeah left my Facebook account in the dust due to being busy with work) but I still love sharing the things I love to the community.

What are your favorite social sites?
Currently Tumblr, which my account on the site has existed since early 2012 but never got many active posts until the end of that year, now it's got way more posts and keeps getting bigger, plus I love to decorate my page with loads of Oshawott stuff because I gotta represent my Poke-mascot after all. I used to use Facebook in the past, but ever since I started work my life got so busy it caused me to leave the account to collect dust. My Twitter also hasn't been tweeting a lot as it used to, but there may be a shot I might still do a tweet every now and then.

What do you use social sites for?

I use social media for communicating my thoughts. On twitter, I can just rant and ramble or talk to people for fun. On tumblr, I can just brag about the things I'm a fan of and post there, and on Facebook I can talk with family and friends.

Welcome. :3 Lately I've become a bit bored of Tumblr because all the fandom groups I was in (NASCAR, The Walking Dead, etc) all died for the holidays and now I'm stuck reblogging random things from my followers. But that doesn't stop me from like...going on tumblr because I love reading random crap. :P I love the Poke-fandom on there, actually. Finding gifs and fanart shared publically seemed to be easy, and it's also easy to find the owner so we can properly credit for their work.

I've been tweeting a lot now. Not as much as I used to back in the beginning, given that I redid my account and all, but it's become a source where I can just spill something quick from my mind.

Tumblr has been my obsession as of late. I'm a part of a ton of the fandoms there and also reblog anything I find amusing or interesting. Alot of Pokemon stuff and Friends things though. I like Twitter as a way to express my thoughts in a few shorts words and Instagram cause I just love taking pictures and it's a neat way to express what goes on through your day in pictures.

Reason for joining: Well, while I don't tweet much, I still browse Twitter every so often (usually a few times throughout the day). I really like Instagram, however. I joined because I want to be in a club with like-minded people who use social media. :]

What do you use social sites for?

Well, like I said, I don't tweet much, unless something inspires me to. So, I use Twitter to catch up on wrestling/hockey news, see what a few friends are up to, etc. Instagram, I don't post a lot of pictures, but I like how I can share my life with others through these pictures. Seeing others' pictures too is pretty cool.
