In my last article, I have told you guys something about the social medium ´Hyves´. Facebook is sort of like it, however, this is an international network.
Facebook was founded in 2004 by a man called Mark Zuckerberg, and he is still currently the manager as well. In 2006, Yahoo offered around 1 billion dollar to buy the social network but their offer was refused by Mark. Nowadays, Facebook is estimated to be worth even a lot more and some companies have a share in it now. Because it is an international network, it has loads of members. Ever since it was founded in 2004, the number of members kept on rising and rising. As of now, it counts more than 300 million members.
The usual also applies here when you want to create a Facebook. Fill in your data like age, gender and name and you are ready to start. Now you can add friends, upload photo’s and create photo albums, write blogs, and you can browse for other users easily.
Keep in touch with your friends, get back into contact with people you haven’t seen for ages, and share your most crazy stories with everyone. Or at least the people you want to share it with of course. On opposite of all the pro’s, there is at one major con: the fact that you can not upload music or video’s to your Facebook.
We can be sure about one thing, social networks like these will experience a bright future, as people are getting more interconnected each day.
