X

In 2006, Jack Dorsey, Noah Glass, Biz Stone, and Evan Williams launched X, previously known as
Twitter, as a social networking and microblogging site. It was released by an American company, Odeo.
In 2022, Elon Musk took over the platform. It is designed for sharing short updates and messages.
These messages are called posts. The posts are limited to 280 characters only. In X, you follow people
or organisations that share similar academic and personal interests. You can create your own X feeds.
You can also repost the posts created by others.

If a post is liked by a lot of people across the globe and it gets many likes, shares and comments, it is
said to have gone Viral. Posts can be anything-pictures, links, GIFs or videos. By default, the posts are
PUBLIC on X. This means that anyone can view the post.

Quora

Quora was launched in the year 2009, founded by Adam
D’Angelo and Charlie Cheever. It is a question and
answer site where anyone can ask a question and people
will answer. It provides high quality answers written by
different users who share a common interest. Quora is a

content created by users and for users. The users vote for
an answer that provides the most accurate information.
This provides a clear explanation of the answer, which other users can also benefit from. You can ask
questions related to education, studies, or even a simple method to solve a sum or question.

It is not a forum to express your views or share your thoughts.
Questions that are poorly phrased or are not appropriate are not entertained on the website.
