Individuals, of all different ages, enjoy meeting and
communicating with other internet users. Despite the fact
that individuals of all ages use the internet to socialize,
there are certain groups of individuals that do more than
others.
Those groups of individuals include students, both high
school students and college students. For that reason, it
is only fitting that there should be a social networking
website that has a focus on these particular individuals.
That networking website is known as Facebook.
Facebook may not be as well known as other popular social
networking websites, such as Yahoo! 360 or MySpace, but it
is still popular. That popularity is mostly among high
school students and college students, mostly because
Facebook focuses on these individuals in particular.
With Facebook, you are required to register for a specific
network. That network can either include the high school or
college which you attended or are currently attending.
Once you have joined the website, you should easily be able
to make contact with others who are in the same network.
The network in which you join can be considered an
advantage of Facebook, as well as a disadvantage. See,
Facebook does not work like most other social networking
websites.
Instead of being able to communicate with all site members,
you are limited to contact with those that are in your
particular network, the high school or college you that
selected. The creators of Facebook state that this is for
your own safety. Although it is safer for your profile and
personal information to be viewed by a small number of
individuals, you may not necessity want it to be that way.
Although a large amount of focus is placed on high school
students and college students, Facebook has added another
popular feature to their website. That feature is workplace
networks. By joining a specific workplace network, you will
be granted access to other community members who work for
the same company as you. This feature is nice, especially
since many companies have become large corporations or
expanded across the country. You may be able to make
contact and become friends with a long-distance coworker
that you never knew you had.
Another aspect of Facebook that you may find inconvenient
is their lack of available information, before you decide
to become a community member. When viewing their online
website, it is hard to tell whether or not the site is free
to use. Most online social networking sites will make this
known right upfront, but Facebook does not.
Aside from the price, you should easily be able to obtain
additional information on Facebook, before making the
decision to become a member. This additional information
may include how Facebook works, why you should become a
member, how the invite process works, and general rules and
restrictions that are in place.
If you are interested in joining the Facebook community,
you should do what you should do with all other social
networking websites, research. By taking the time to
research and examine everything that Facebook has to offer,
you should be able to decide whether or not this popular
networking community is what you were looking for.
There is a good chance that it will be, but if not, do not
worry. There are literally an unlimited number of other
social networking websites that you can join
