Social Networking Sites

Myspace
This is the original.  Tom and your top friends ran your Myspace page along with a custom layout and music of your choosing.  It used to be a very popular and customizable site.  Now I see that it has a music niche.  Artists and celebrates can make posts and connect it with record labels or event venues.

Twitter
To me this is the most powerful site out there.  Companies, public figures, icons, celebrities, and the average Joe can speak their mind.  Hash tags connect the entire twitter universe on one specific topic.  When a popular topic is being spoken about it becomes a trending topic based on your location.

Facebook
If you want to develop a profile about yourself keeping your friends and family updated this is the site.  Uploading pictures, posting statuses and links make it a great way to share and view.  This sites niche is definitely messaging.  Countries throughout the world use Facebook to keep in contact.

Instagram
This is comparable to twitter except instead of posting words you post pictures.  Hashtags and celebrities still exist the same.  You can follow whichever account you want and gain followers (within privacy restrictions).
