In my opinion, recruiting colleagues to a research team via a social media portal like Facebook is possible but probably rarely used. Facebook or other popular social media portals, like LinkedIn, WhatsApp, Tweeter, YouTube, Instagram, Google+, Snapchat, Pinterest, etc., are not sites tailored to the needs of researchers. Apparently, internet technology companies that manage the largest social media portals, such as Facebook, LinkedIn, WhatsApp, Tweeter, YouTube, Instagram, Google+, Snapchat, etc., plan to undertake research and implementation work or implement these works to implement specific technologies for social media portals artificial intelligence. Perhaps, when these social media portals will be improved accordingly, when artificial intelligence will be implemented in these social media portals, it will become more friendly to scientists.

In view of the above, the current question is: Do social media portals facilitate establishing contacts between scientists in order to create international research teams?

Please, answer, comments. I invite you to the discussion.
