Facebook
Facebook, created by Mark Zuckerberg, a collaborative environment for exchanging and sharing.
Facebook has been so well received that its story has even been brought to the big screen with the title The social network, a film that received several Academy Award nominations.
In May 2006, the Facebook network was successfully extended in India, with support from technology institutes in that country. In June 2006, there was an agreement with the iTunes Store to learn about users' musical tastes and thus offer a download link on its own site. In August 2006, Facebook added universities in Germany and Israel to its network. It also introduced importing blogs from Xanga, LiveJournal or Blogger.
Services.
• - Walls.
The wall is a space in each user profile that allows friends to write messages for the user to see. It is only visible to registered users. Allows you to enter images and put any type of logos in your publication. An improvement called superwall allows you to embed Flash animations, etc. In November 2011, Facebook began implementing a wall replacement, which will be called Biography.
• - Friends list.
In it, the user can add anyone they know and who is registered, as long as they accept their invitation. On Facebook you can locate friends with whom you lost contact or add new ones with whom to exchange photos or messages. To do this, the Facebook server has search and friend suggestion tools.
• - Chat.
Instant messaging service on mobile devices and computers through Facebook Messenger.
• - Groups and pages.
It is one of the most recently developed utilities. It's about bringing together people with common interests. In groups you can add photos, videos, messages, etc. The pages are created for specific purposes and, unlike groups, they do not contain discussion forums, since they are directed towards specific brands or characters and not towards any type of call. The groups have their regulations, which include the prohibition of groups with discriminatory themes or that incite hatred and lack respect and honor of people. Although this is not true on many occasions, there is the option to denounce and report groups that go against this rule, which is why Facebook includes a link in each group which goes to a complaints and claims box, for this reason there are people within the groups who are assigned the role of moderator, so that they verify publications and comments with a certain frequency; as well as approve or reject requests from members who may be bots or spammers.
• - Gifts.
Gifts are small icons with a message. Gifts given to a user appear on the wall with the donor's message, unless the donor chooses to give the gift privately, in which case the donor's name and message are not displayed to other users.
An "anonymous" option is also available, whereby anyone with profile access can view the gift, but only the recipient will see the message. Some gifts were free and the rest cost a dollar (a credit card number or Paypal account is required). The Gifts feature no longer exists since biographies were implemented.
• - Marital Status.
Facebook offers the option to enter whether you are single, married, divorced or even "It's complicated" when the user's love life is difficult to define.
"Like" button: This function appears at the bottom of each publication made by the user or their contacts (status updates, shared content, etc.), it is characterized by a small icon in the shape of a hand with the thumb pointing up.30 It allows you to assess whether the content is liked by the current user on the social network, in the same way the person who originally posted that topic is notified if it is liked by someone else (one of their contacts). Previously it was going to be called "I'm impressed" but users decided to name it "I like it", although it is also incorrectly called in Spanish with the term "Like".
