Task 2:- discussions on social media networking

How was your last task, I hope you enjoy it. Now, I am expecting from you to do a discussion on Moodle about Twitter vs Facebook vs Google+ after watching the embedded video. If you did it then you are ready to go for the second task which will be finding approaches on how to integrate this social networking in your E-portfolio or in the classroom and drop the file word into the Assignment drop box.

These two tasks would not take more than two hours and if you have any question you are free to ask.

Good luck

According to Business Horizons book, “Social networking sites are applications that enable users to connect by creating personal information profiles, inviting friends and colleagues to have access to those profiles, and sending e-mails and instant messages between each other” (Kaplan & Haenlein, 2010).
