Answer to Question 1

The earliest social networks, in the mid-1980s and 1990s were community bulletin boards, or discussion groups (e.g., The Well). In the early 2000s, technology changed, introducing blogging, and photo sharing features. As the Internet user population expanded, more and more socially oriented sites appeared, like Facebook, allowing users to share content directly with each other. More recently, in the late 2000s and early 2010s, as the Internet became available to browse (and post to) via mobile devices, more and more photo and video sharing social networks have emerged, such as Pinterest and Instagram. A new crop of social networks launched since 2008, such as Snapchat and Whatsapp, that focus on messaging.
