The Importance of
Facebook
- Business
Facebook also has an entire interface designed for
businesses, complete with business profile pages and
an advertising system that allows marketers to target
their ads based on the wealth of information users
provide about themselves on the site. on the wealth of
information users provide about themselves on the site
- Journalism and Information
According to a study by the Pew Research Center, Facebook
is an important driver to online news sites. The Huffington
Post and The New York Times receive a significant amount
of their traffic from Facebook links and referrals, with the
Huffington Post topping the list at 8 percent.
- Communication
In 2009, Facebook's chat program surpassed the
one billion messages per day milestone, less than a
year after the platform was launched. These figures
don't take other communication methods on
Facebook -- such as messages, wall posts, comments
and pokes -- into account, but do demonstrate the
huge and growing importance of the site as a way for
contacts to exchange information
- Facebook as a Community
he sociologist Benedict Anderson defines a community
as a group where even if the members do not know each other
personally, they recognize each other's existence as parts of the
whole and share a set of common practices and experiences.That
could be good or bad, depending largely on the conduct of users
and the decisions made by Facebook to shape relationships
among members, yet the very existence of such a large
community is important to say the least.
A Brief History of Facebook
In February 2004 Mr. Zuckerberg launched
"The Facebook", as it was originally known; the
name taken from the sheets of paper
distributed to freshmen, profiling students and
staff. Within 24 hours, 1,200 Harvard students
had signed up, and after one month, over half
of the undergraduate population had a profile.
