On-line social
networking service,
Facebook will start
charging its users $
2.99 (almost N500) for
their new monthly
plan according to
reports.
Speaking on the
monthly fee at a
press conference,
Facebook founder and
CEO, Mark Zuckerberg
said: ‘After thinking
long and hard about
this decision, at the
end of the day, we
were forced to add
this monthly fee.’
‘If we don’t do
something about our
rising costs now,
Facebook could cease
to exist in the near
future.’
Facebook Spokesman,
Paul Horner, also
explained the reason
for the new monthly
fee in an interview
with CNN
‘Economic times are
tight; the ads on
Facebook are not as
profitable as we had
planned. Our costs are
going up as hundreds
of thousands of
individuals continue to
join the site every day,
There’s so many
pictures of cats, and
all of those costs add
up, we just can’t foot
the bill any longer.’
Facebook was
founded on February 4,
2004, by Mark
Zuckerberg with his
college room-mates
and fellow Harvard
University students,
Eduardo Saverin,
Andrew McCollum,
Dustin Moskovitz and
Chris Hughes.
