I Introduction
Facebook is an American for-profit corporation and online social
media and social networking service based in Menlo Park,
California. The Facebook website was launched on February 4,
2004, by Mark Zuckerberg, along with fellow Harvard
College students and roommates.
The founders had initially limited the website's membership to
Harvard students; however, later they expanded it to higher
education institutions in the Boston area, the Ivy League schools,
and Stanford University. Facebook gradually added support for
students at various other universities, and eventually to high
school students as well.
Facebook may be accessed by a large range
of desktops, laptops, tablet computers, and smartphones over
the Internet and mobile networks. After registering to use the
site, users can create a user profile indicating their name,
occupation, schools attended and so on.
Facebook, Inc. held its initial public offering (IPO) in February
2012.
On July 13, 2015, Facebook became the fastest company in
the Standard & Poor's 500 Index to reach a market cap of $250
billion
As of April 2016, Facebook was the most popular social
networking site in the world, based on the number of active
user accounts.
