Facebook is ranked amongst the largest social networking site though with an education focus in the world today with over 845 million active users worldwide and had over 2.7 billion daily likes and comments

BUT HOW DID IT ALL BEGAN?.
What was the sole purpose behind the creation of facebook? Mark zuckerberg founded facebook while studying psychology at Harvard university, he had developed similar social networking websites for fellow students like coursematch which allowed users to view people taking their degree and facemash, where you could rate peoples attractiveness. In febuary 2004, zuckebreg launched the facebook as it was already known, the name was taken from the sheets of paper distributed to freshman, profiling students and staff Mark also stated that he wanted to create a website that can connect people around the university (Harvard). Facebooks mission statement claims it wants to make the world a more open and connected place since social media is all about openness and sharing. Can it be said that facecook inc has fully achieved it’s aims and objectives or is there still more work left undone. The truth is that since the inception, facebook has grown from grass to grace with millions of users worldwide. Without been told facebook has done a great job in changing the way people mingle online such as
1. Illuminating conversations
2. Creating new horizons
3. Scam and spamming
5. Job search
6. work online from home
7. job opportunity
8. advert tunnel


5 most Common mistakes newbies make on facebook
1. incomplete profile. When creating your profile, you should understand that Outside being a social networking site, facebook is also a marketplace that is to say that it is like a open field or a space where once you post anything clicks.. the next second millions of people around the globe will have access to your profile and again it is very common and rather disappointing when your friends access your profile page and fail to find any information about it. they don’t know what it is about, what’s its goal, where you are located, whether you has a website or not, among other things Like your recent events, likes and dislikes. It is essential for you that you complete all the information of your profile.
The following are some tips for your page to stand out and come across as more attractive:
Upload an attractive cover photo
Upload a profile picture that allows people to identify you easily
Complete the information on your profile and add the link to your website, blog if neccesarry
Use Facebook’s applications in order to take make it more attractive.
2. . YOU ARE NOT ACQUAINTED WITH THE TERMS AND CONDITIONS. It’s necessary that as owners and administrators of your pages in social networks you know the terms and conditions to do things right, not just because this is the way it should be but because Facebook might review your page and cancel it. Definitely this would mean a much bigger problem than simply reading the tedious terms and conditions.
3. YOU ARE ONLY INTERESTED IN LIKES AND DISLIKES. This is a very logical point but sometimes we forget to put ourselves in the user’s shoes, Accessing a profile page and realizing the only thing they publish are posts related to the oneself etc. is boring! This is necessary but it cannot be the ONLY thing you publish. It’s not very pleasant to be around people that only talk about themselves and that don’t care about you, that can’t be bothered to ask about your life or your family. We tend to avoid people who are all about “me me me me”.
