What do these <> mean on facebook and twitter.? - Els - 01-20-2013 02:29 AM Like people put a list of things or two things then these arrows. Example: Justin Bieber > One direction or Demi Lovato > Michelle Keegan or Eastenders > Coronation street Like, what do they mean? Thank you. Also what does this mean: The Wanted >>>>>> 😍 - charcharr - 01-20-2013 02:37 AM You know in maths where they'd say like, 0<5 means 0 is smaller than 5 so on twitter/fb they mean the same, for example Justin Bieber > One direction means Justin is better than One D - James - 01-20-2013 02:37 AM Justin Bieber > One Direction = They like Justin Bieber more than One direction - Chris - 01-20-2013 02:37 AM Think of the arrow as a mouth, eating the bigger or greater thing. In the example you posted, te first person is sayin that Justin Beiber is better than One Direction. - Prim♥ - 01-20-2013 02:37 AM > Is more than < Is less than So for example; Justin Bieber > One direction would mean you prefer Justin Bieber - Mysterious - 01-20-2013 02:37 AM They mean the same as in maths. So, Justin Bieber is better than One direction. Demi Lovato is better than Michelle Keegan Eastenders is better than Coronation street. - lisa_jessiej - 01-20-2013 02:37 AM these signs are used in maths so it's as though instead of saying 1>0 (one is greater than 0) it's as though Justin is better than One Direction like my life is > than yours is the same as my life is better than yours! x and the wanted >>>>>> means the wanted are amazing!
