The Samsung manufactured Google Nexus S has a number of impressive features for social networking. These include Facebook and Twitter integration with dedicated apps available for each one, as well as other social media features such as YouTube and Picasa Integration.

Facebook
Facebook is the most popular social networking site in the world. With over 500 million members logging on to the site daily, it offers a convenient means of staying connected to friends, family and colleagues all over the world, free of charge. The Google Nexus S has a dedicated Facebook app which allows users to carry out nearly all of the functions you would be able to on a computer. By using the app (which often has updates available via Android Market) you are able to update your status as well as like and comment on your friends’ statuses, posts and photos etc. When you take a photo or shoot some video footage using the phone’s camera, you also have the option to directly upload it without even having to login to your Facebook account, thanks to an option to do this directly.

Twitter
Twitter integration is a big part ...
... of the social networking scene. It is growing rapidly, and offers a great way for people to follow individual and celebrities. The Google Nexus S has Twitter integrations, which similarly to its Facebook app, allows users to carry out the majority of the functions that they would be able to on a computer. You can post an update (known as Tweeting) directly from the app, as well as follow new people and keep tabs of your following list. The fact that the Google Nexus S has Twitter integration makes it perfect for live updates on the go, as you can post a new message in seconds no matter where you are.

YouTube and Picasa
The Google Nexus S comes with a 5 megapixel digital camera built in. Once you have taken a snapshot or video clip which is worthy of sharing with the online world, users have the ability to instantly post their handiwork to the appropriate site. Once you have shot some video footage, you have the option to instantly post it to your YouTube account, meaning that it is only a matter of seconds between filming, and making it available to the millions of YouTube viewers. The same goes for Picasa; except this site concentrates on still images rather than video. All you need is a free account with the site, and you can then upload your photos almost instantly.

Social networking is becoming increasingly popular, and thanks to the level of integration with the appropriate sites the Google Nexus S offers, it has never been easier to keep up to date on the go. Of course, the Google Nexus S offers many more features, but in terms of social networking integration it is the ideal phone for those who like to share their experiences, videos and photos with their friends and family.
