Facebook is a social networking website that allows people to communicate with their friends and exchange information. Launched on February 4, 2004, Facebook was founded by Mark Zuckerberg, a former member of the Harvard class of 2006 and former Ardsley High School student.
Facebook is not just merely a social networking website like of others but what made it more interesting especially to technology geeks is that they launched last May of 2007 an API(Application Programming Interface) that allows the development of applications to be used on the site, known as Facebook Platform. Just recently, they added new feature to it: Facebook Ads, a marketing initiative which includes a system for websites to allow users to share chosen information about their activities on the sites with their Facebook friends.This was introduced to me by Sir Eric and I found it really interesting and can’t just stop myself of being hooked with it.
