Mark Zuckerberg created Facebook in 2004 while he was a student at Harvard. He was inspired to create a social networking site after developing Facemash, a site that allowed users to rate other students' photos. Initially only available to Harvard students, Facebook quickly expanded to other universities and then publicly in 2006. By 2018, Facebook had over 2.2 billion active users worldwide. While Facebook allows users to connect and share with friends and family, it also faces criticisms like oversharing, bullying, and relationship problems caused by excessive use.

• A site created by Mark Zuckerberg that compared the pictures of different Harvard student's
faces and allowed users to rate them for attractiveness.

ID images.

Moskovitz, and Chris Hughes — all of whom were students at Harvard University. Soon after, the
new site was launched under the URL thefacebook.com.

18. Facebook Posts
We cannot deny the impacts that Facebook brought upon us.
Because of its versatile features and functions, it gained many users for
a short span of time. Filipinos took advantage of this - sharing
memories, communicating and making friends, share jokes and fun
stuffs, and even during this online class, we still make good use of it.
As users, we should be responsible of what we are about to share.
Because, even though we are the owners of our account, we cannot
miss the fact that others will get to see this and get hurt. Or that when
we share information, it should be based on facts not to mislead others.
As what they say, “think before you click”.
