Is Facebook the next Myspace? More and more people are starting to ask this question these days because the world’s most famous social network is slowly losing its’ popularity. Teens no longer think FB is cool anymore. Current users are already bored and looking for alternatives. If you’re going through the same situation you should check out these three best social networks that are even better than Facebook itself.

Google+

Google came into the social battle a little too late but they never fails. Google+ is currently growing so fast and popular among all Internet users. And, it is the second largest social network on the Internet. Google recently announced that Google+ now has more than 500 million users.

Google+ is not exactly like Facebook. But, it’s better. Even Facebook is copying Google+ style these days. This social network is all about finding and connecting with people with similar interests, from around the world, without limiting to just friends and family. You can follow as many people as you want and then you can chat with them, do hangouts, share your interests, explore trending topics, join communities and much more.

Most people say that Google+ is a ghost town, after just using it for few hours. So, don’t give up easily. Give it time. Learn the basics and have fun.

Go give Google+ a try. You wont be disappointed.

Pinterest

This is for people who likes more sharing and less chatting. Pinterest is a content sharing network that lets you share photos, videos with your followers. It’s not gonna let you chat with your followers, send messages, update status and stuff, but you can definitely have fun sharing.

Pinterest is great for finding interest-based photos and videos like infographics, movie posters, funny/ amazing photos, meme’s and many more. Women seems to be the ones who’s taking the most advantage out of this social network. But, that’s doesn’t mean you can’t.

Check out Pinterest.

Chime.in

Now I know most of you would expect me to mention Twitter as a Facebook alternative. But, instead of pointing out the obvious I’ve decided to tell you guys about another cool social network called Chime.in, which most people still doesn’t know about.

In a nutshell, Chime.in is more like combination of Facebook, Twitter and Reddit. It lets you follow people, update status, post links, videos, photos, join communities, save links, vote links, and even compete with others to land on the Top 100 Leader Board. Although, its’ main focus is to connect people with same interests.

If you want to try something new, you should definitely check out Chime.in
