"It's like e-mail, but for social media. You create an account with GMail or Yahoo or whoever, and that lets you interact with anyone else with an e-mail address, doesn't matterof they're using the same e-mail service as you."
Honestly to me that made it even more confusing
You know how when you sign up with gmail it only let's you email other gmail users and no one with a different email domain? It's like that.
