It gradually added support for students at various other universities before opening to high school students and finally to anyone with 13 year old and over. Facebook does sounds good right? Well, I already have one how about you?
I recently started facebook. But unfortunatlly, I don't have time find out how to use it now since I'm so busy for the house work and school work. I hope I will have more time for it when this semester finished. I heard that as well as making a friends on the face book, people also use it for job hunting. Development of the global internet is really amazing!!
ReplyDeleteFacebook is very nice to be in touch with people like friends and family. We can share pictures, videos, music and many information. I think for people who live far of our native countries is a very good tool to be in touch. In my opinion, Facebook is not only a social network, for example Facebook is a great tool for business or as marketing tool
