Yes, exactly five years ago, 04.02.2004, student Mark Zuckerberg published facebook (thefacebook as it was called till 2005), which gives us five years old kid. No seriously, his project has grown to one of the biggest, what is called social networking websites. Long behind are MySpace, bebo, hi5, badoo and others. Nowadays the "population of facebook" counts at about 130mln people.
How many of you have account on Facebook?? I can bet almost all!!! The expansion of Facebook and other social networking communities allowed people to communicate with their friends, exchange videos, photos, sharing there music, playing so in general having lots of fun. It is good, isn't it??
Well not soo good. There are very serious cases in which people were killed. I remember reading a article in one of the London's newspapers about the wife who was killed by her husband just because she changed her relationship status.
That is not the end. There are researches which proves that people spending great deal of time on that websites become more prone to depression and anxiety(Well, I'm fine so far:)). Some of them are becoming addicted to facebook, which can be one of the worst cases. You change your real life in virtual life!
What can I say? I congratulate the Facebook team for good work, and keep it up guys!!!
