Please use attachment to write final draft

For this assignment, you will write a argumentative in which you research two social media platforms. After evaluating these platforms, you will determine which one you think is more successful. You can define successful as user-friendly, most advantageous, best overall, etc. Ultimately, you are persuading your reader that one platform is better than the other. You must choose a side. 

· Imagine that your intended audience are people who are wary of social media, and/or may be new to social media.

o How the platform was created, the purpose(s) of the platform, the visual layout, method(s) of communication (real-time, asynchronous posts, video, text, images, etc.), employment opportunities, frequency of advertisements on the platform, associated costs, privacy concerns (user data tracking, etc.), accessibility (for differently abled), the ways the platform can be accessed (devices or means), user complaints/concerns, global reach (Where is it used?), popularity (active users), user demographics, how the platform has changed over time, etc. 

· Students are encouraged to identify and discredit at least one opposing point of view, if applicable. 

· Write a direct thesis in which you state your position (which platform is most successful) and list your reasons. Keep in mind that the body paragraphs should reflect the order of the reasons listed in the thesis.
