3. Blackberry Messenger

Twitter is a form of micro-blogging service that enables internet users to send and read text based messages. Twitter can be accessed by any type of technology for example an Ipone or Ipad (Deepchund, 2013). Blackberry Messenger is a term which stands for BBM in which users can send and receive messages in seconds with up to 2000 characters, and users are able to know when a message has been delivered and read (Deepchund, 2013). The user can share photos, videos, voice notes and files of up to 6MB. BBM can only be accessed via using a Blackberry phone. Facebook is a well known networking service and website that allows people all over the world to get to know each other via this website(Deepchund, 2013).
