social networking sites such as
Twitter, Instagram, Facebook, etc. use
tags that start with a pound sign (#)
or hashtag.

dynamic and is responsive to
user’s input. Anexample would be
a website that shows local content.
In the case of social networking
sites, when logged on, your
account is used to modify what you
see in their website.

owner of website is not the
only one who is able to put
content. Others are able to
place a content on their own

reviews, and evaluation.
