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
                 platform to ask questions which interest you. You can also
                 create social networks and follow topics that interest you.
                 To answer a specific question, you can also post pictures
                 related to the answers, if needed. Quora is a user generated
                 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.
                 What you cannot do on Quora:

                    You cannot argue on any topic or raise a conflict.
                    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.

                 You can create a Quora account on the website quora.com. by following the different steps to create
                 your account.
