The development became more evident in the level of software and services provided by the Internet, which developed the fixed internet pages into dynamic pages based on different programming languages, which paved the way for the emergence of a new generation of Internet services and social networking sites such as Facebook Twitter and Google Plus. Social media technology includes forums, blogs, social networks, photo sharing, video blogs, and sharing of music and voice over IP, to name a few. Social networks can link many of the programs used.
