Since the first social networking website showed up on the Internet, finding and keeping friends on the Internet has never been easier. But it was Mark Zuckerberg who revolutionalised the social networking community when he launched Facebook in February 2004. Since Facebook was launched, the whole idea of networking with friends, relatives, co-works, students, even strangers has changed a lot. What started as just a profiling website for student has become a phenomenon all over the world.
FB has it is commonly called came to be. And ever since it has being growing rapidly, developing different kinds of features other social-networks never thought possible. It is not just about FB’s user friendliness that attracts multitude of users to FB. It is the multifaceted features that allow users to do virtually anything on the website. On FB users can give gifts to friends, post free classified advertisements and even develop their own applications - graffiti and Scrabble are particularly popular and the moment.
While other social-network communities like Myspace, Ning, Hi5, Friendster, Faceparty etc try to special on some aspects of networking, FB try to explore any feature available. This unique side of FB has made her the most popular social networking community at the moment. It is obvious that Mark Zuckerberg choose to flush other social-networking sites with his unique idea of sharing. Sharing just anything ranging from pictures to sharing of friends. While Youtube shares videos, FB shares anything at all that can be use as a gift to others.
It is not about emails, chatting or blogging now, Facebook if bigger than that. It is gradually phasing out other social-networking communities by its dynamic presentation of sharing, user friendliness, free classified adverts and wide range of accessibility. Personally, what I think is the killer strategy that makes facebook unbeatable is its educational undertone. Just anyone can profile his/herself with FB and such profile can serve as source of education for many. Also, several educative materials are being shared daily on FB. On FB, you can simply ask professional question and you will be sure to have a candid answer.
So far FB has registered about 30 million user, making it the largest social-networking site with an education focus. Facebook is a very strong competition in the social-networking community. Even the presence of well-financed networking sites like Youtube and twitter doesn’t seem to bother FB at all. Many social-networking sites have come and go, but it is obvious that FB has come to stay with all the features explored above.
