Facebook is a social networking site with approx 500 million active users in July 2010.It was launched on February 2004, so we can see that it has gained much popularity in a very short time of some years.
It was found by Mark Zuckerberg with some of his roommates and few computer science students of Harvard college of Boston.It gradually added support for students at various other universities before opening to high school students, and, finally, to anyone aged 13 and over. The original concept for Facebook was borrowed from a product produced by Zuckerberg's prep school Phillips Exeter Academy, which for decades published and distributed a printed manual of all students and faculty, unofficially called the "face book".
