Facebook is a social networking website, users can join networks that are organized by city, region, school or workplace. These social networks allow you to connect and interact with other Facebook users. In Facebook you are allowed to add friends and send them messages. The Facebook website’s name refers to the paper facebooks depicting members of a campus community that some US colleges and preparatory schools give to incoming students, faculty, and staff as a way to get to know other people on campus. It is a funny analogy. The founders of facebook is Mark Zuckerberg, Dustin Moskovitz and Chris Hughes while they were students at Harvard University.

The Facebook membership was initially limited to students of Harvard, but was expanded to other colleges in the Boston area, the Ivy League, and Stanford University. As Facebook grew, by allowing any university student to sign up, then came the high school students and rest of internet social networking population. The Facebook website currently has more than 200 million active users worldwide. It would be interesting to see the incoming internet bandwidth switch for this many users. Facebook has become one of the big dogs of social networking, as compared to MySpace.

The basics of Social networking is where individuals form specific groups. Something like the Democrats and Republicans. These groups can also be like your old neighborhood you grew up in, your high school or and your universities. I have noticed that the tons of internet users are looking to meet other internet users. No we are not talking dating services, yes dating service sites are a form of social networking, but I am talking about the others, no matter where there gender is, are looking to develop friendships, common interest groups or even a professional relationship. Forums are good place to inter-act in a social networking source.

Social networking sites function like an online community of internet users. Most of the forums, yes I keep bringing up forums, are online social members that share a common interest such as software users, hobbies, school affiliation, game playing, religion, or politics. Be careful online when discussing religion or politics on line, you will get very bad mouthed during some disagreements. Once you are granted access to a social networking website you can begin to socialize. Start out slow, read and listen until you feel comfortable to start posting. This socialization can include spending some of your time reading the profile pages of other members like your self and possibly even contacting them. Go ahead contact them, you do not know what grand and wonderful things you discuss. They cannot bite you. Do this often, there are alot of interesting folks like you out there in the social blogosphere. Social Networks is about groups and conversation. I have some of the best conversation with others in India. I have learned tons about the culture and everyday like with online discussions from others of different countries, hopefully they have learned something about where I am from.
