RELAX with SOCIAL NETWORKING





 

the most popular social sites

Facebook:

Facebook is a social networking website that allows users to contact their friends online and share their thoughts, opinions, status updates, photos, videos and links to other sites that they found interesting or amusing.
To access Facebook, you must create an account on the site which is free. Facebook's terms of use state that members must be at least 13 years old with valid email ID’s. After updating you're details, your Facebook profile is generated. Using Facebook.com you can:

 -Browse and join networks, which are organized into four categories: regions, colleges, workplaces and high schools.

-Pull contacts from a Web-based e-mail account, into Facebook.com.
-Find friends in several ways, including search engine to look for a specific person and lot more.

·         An important function of Facebook is building relationships. Teenagers in school for example may meet in class, become Facebook friends and then share things and talk about things online to form bonds when they cannot be together. People who are shy often find socializing online is a great way to build friendships in a safe environment so they are stronger when they next meet that friend.

·         The use of Facebook Pages is becoming increasingly common for businesses and websites and means that Facebook is developing a new function as a source of advertising. This is particularly good for small businesses that cannot afford formal advertising. By 'Liking' a business page you will be sent regular updates from the business so you know what is happening.

·         Facebook is a great way of sharing photographs and allowing friends to be tagged in them and comment on them. As most people now have digital cameras, pictures are often stored on computers instead of being developed and Facebook brought our digital photos back into the real world, rather being stored away on a computer file.

Facebook has recently crossed 800 million users and is the most popular Social Networking site of the world.
