Social Applications on FacebookOne of the fastest growing phenomena in the world is occurring online. This phenomenon is called Facebook . Facebook started in 1995 as a simple web based project by a Harvard student, and has now grown into one of the largest sites on the internet. Millions of people log in each day to update their status and stay in touch with friends. Facebook has evolved a lot since its inception, with the biggest innovation being the implementation of social applications. Social applications are relatively unique to the online world. They have been around before Facebook was implemented, but Facebook took them to the next level. The amount of social interaction is unbelievable. What we are seeing is a revolution in the way that people communicate. We no longer have to go over to our friend’s house to have a game night, we can all sit in the comfort of our homes and do it over Facebook’s various applications. There are too many applications to list, but Facebook has done an excellent job in sourcing out the work to various companies who continue to make new and innovative applications for Facebook users to use. Whatever your tastes are, Facebook is sure to have an application that appeals to you. There is a new wave of entertainment coming, and Facebook is leading the way. |
