Q&A Round 3 [Continued]

Are they [Facebook and Renren] the same or are they similar? 人人网和Facebook是一样的东西吗？或者有什么相似之处？

Tag sb. = Hashtag sb. , 即新浪微博上经常会看到的#话题#

Hashtag，Ray说在Insta上面也是个很热门的功能，比如你可以设置或查找 #life in China#

而且像Facebook, Twitter，在Ray看来，已经没有前些年那么流行了，现在真正还火爆的是Instagram。

I think social apps like Twitter, Facebook faded out and most of the people are using Instigram.

Fade out: 渐渐消失不见，过时

Newer generation: 这里主要指大学生，1997年甚至2000年后出生的人群。

总结来说，Facebook更注重保护隐私。

Ray个人喜欢的：a meditation app

It helps track all my movements, let's say 'how many steps did I take?', 'how long did I sleep?', you know, it will give me, like, a sleep cycle.

Track my movements 跟踪记录我的行动
Sleep cycle 睡眠周期

You are tired but your mind is active. 身体很累，脑子却很兴奋。
With five or ten minutes your nerves are calmed down. 精神松弛下来。

Calm down one's nerves 放松精神

A busy and hectic day 忙碌的一天
