Social media platforms like Facebook and Twitter have transformed how people communicate and share information. Facebook allows users to connect with friends, share photos and updates, and join groups and pages. Twitter allows users to follow accounts they find interesting and share short updates. Both platforms provide analytics tools to track engagement. While the basics of each platform are simple, their impact has been significant by enabling real-time sharing, viral content spread, and new ways for companies to interact with customers.
