Classmates
Odnoklassniki is currently ranked second on the Russian Internet. This social network became one of the very first in Russia and is still very popular.
The resource is popular among middle-aged people.
A feature of Odnoklassniki is the presence of its own currency, with which you can buy gifts, change interface elements and activate new account management functions. The drop in traffic to Odnoklassniki was caused by the growing popularity of VKontakte. However, the social network managed to return part of its audience thanks to the transfer of the service to Mail.ru, a large company that provides a large number of services for Internet users.
Other social networks
Facebook is a social network that became the first in the world and is the most popular today among users around the world. However, it did not receive such distribution in Russia due to restrictions on file uploads and video exchange, which the resource imposes. Also, some users note that Facebook has a somewhat overloaded interface, which makes it difficult to get used to and use the functions of the network.
Other popular social networks are such world-famous sites as Twitter, which allows you to share short notes and incidents in life with other users, Livejournal, which allows you to maintain a fully functional blog, and Google+, which has not yet gained wide popularity among users in Russia.
