#BEDM DAY 9 - Favourite social media platform

Hiya loves!

Day 9 done, only another 22 to go! I'm enjoying the blog every day of May challenge so far and I hope you are too.

Are you a Twitter-lover? Or maybe you can't get enough of Pinterest? Do you need to share every meal on Instagram? Do you waste away the hours watching Youtube? Or Facebook is your comfort zone? Tell us about your favourite social media channel and why.

My favourite social media platform by far is Twitter, although I love Instagram with a passion, too. I have phases of being in love with Facebook, but their constant changes to things which aren't broken exasperate me somewhat. I hardly ever upload photos to Facebook any more as it duplicates so many of them and scatters the order, which drives me insane! I use Pinterest as well, but not obsessively. There's only so much spare time in the day when you're a blogger!

I love the immediacy of Twitter. News stories break before you see them on the rest of the internet, let alone have time to reach TV. I remember being up late when Michael Jackson died. Twitter was electric with the news. At the click of a link I can catch up on my favourite bloggers' posts. I can see news from the famous people you just can't access on Facebook. I can upload photos with a few clicks from my phone. Best of all, because Fibromyalgia gives me the attention span of a gnat, 140 characters at a time suits me fine.

What's your social media addiction?

Thanks for reading.
