Hello

I suggest you use Google+, Youtube, and Pinterest.
You just make accounts on these websites, and you try to figure out on your own how to use these websites. If you want to try the above websites, I think you need a gmail e-mail account to get started with the above websites.

Regarding twitter, you make something called a tweet. It's like you speak with yourself, but what you are saying is to the rest of the world. A tweet is like you type one, or two small sentences, and you share what you want to say with the rest of the world.

Regarding facebook don't bother to use facebook.

You don't really have to write anything if it doesn't interest you. Heck, you don't even need them at all. To be honest I used Facebook to post my art, twitter's a no go for me and snapchat to have conversations or document funny things in my day Smile

there are different personas on different social websites por example:

tumblr- fandom stuff, a lot of hipsters (if u dont know hipsters are people who post 'scenographic stuff' and 'look a starbucks coffee cup' and 'look how the sun reflects on that raindrop'and basically people who hate mainstream stuff). tumblr works on a 'tag' system, in which you 'tag' something using a hashtag with whatever it is you're post ing. for example- if i post a picture of benedict cumberbatch i will probably tag it with #MY FEELS. you can then search through these tags to find posts.

facebook- where all the people who actually go outside go to. a lot of selfies. where you can show off about your 'exciting' life. post cat pictures. talk about your life and what you're doing

twitter- it's mainly fandom stuff. you follow celebrities or your friends and theyll tweet about their life and what theyre doing. you can do that too. live tweeting is a big thing too (basically a group of people collectively watching something and tweeting their feelings and thoughts during that thing).

youtube- pretty easy this one. watch funny videos. laugh. press that red subscribe button. join the phandom. cry for a couple of years.

instagram- remember what i said about hipsters? well this is like hipster paradise. you will find pictures of food, selfies, clothes, countries.... you can pretty much post pictures of anything. instagram also works on a 'tag' system.

snapchat- technically a phone app but whatevs. basically add your friends and exchange derpy photos together.

the best way to get started is to go onto the websites and they should give you a tutorial on how to use them. find you interests, if you like a specific band, you can find people on twitter or tumblr who like the same thing and talk about it together.

Just sign up for an account on any of those you mentioned. Follow their instructions for creating a username and password. Then it's just like you communicate as if you were sending a note or texting someone. There are links you can review that show you the ropes in facebook and twitter. Since you have lots of friends who will connect as soon as they know you have an account, it should be easy for you to get started.

How do I permanently delete my account?

If you deactivate your account, your Timeline disappears from the Facebook service immediately. People on Facebook won't be able to search for you, though some info, like messages you sent, may still be visible to others. We also save your Timeline information (ex: friends, photos, interests) in case you want to come back.

If you don't think you'll use Facebook again, you can request to have your account permanently deleted. Please keep in mind that you won't be able to reactivate your account or retrieve anything you've added. Before you do this, you may want to download a copy of your info from Facebook. Then, if you'd like your account permanently deleted with no option for recovery, log into your account and let us know.

If you can't log in to your account, you'll need to reset your password first. To do this, go to http://www.facebook.com and click the Forgot your password? link below the password field. Once you’ve followed the instructions to reset your password and can log into your account, you can deactivate or delete your account using the steps outlined above.
