Facebook Vs Blogger Vs YouTube

Blogger;
Blogger is something which allows people to create posts and put them onto their own individual online blogs, these would be timestamped so that audiences would know when this was written. For example they could speak about what happened in their day, or what's happening in the media. Also, other users would be able to read this and make comments about they have wrote. Blogger was created by Pyra Labs, which was bought by Google in 2003.

Facebook;
Facebook is a social-networking site, like blogger allows users to create an account and a profile, uploading pictures and video's. Like Blogger it allows people to make posts, like a blog, however rather than a long blog post like it is common on Blogger, they post short simple ones just to talk about what they are doing at that time, or what they are thinking at the time. People can become friends with one and other to allow other to view the posts/pictures/profile/etc. Facebook was launched in February 2004 that is operated and privately owned by Facebook, Inc. As of January 2011, Facebook has more than 600 million active users.

YouTube;
YouTube is a video sharing website. It allows users to create video blogs online for others to see, or share events with family and friends. Also, some music companies publish their music videos or songs online to advertise upcoming albums/singles. YouTube was created by three former PayPal employees in February 2005, it was then bought the following year in November 2006, it was bought by Google for $1.65 billion and now works as a subsidiary of Google.
