You are probably one of the million users of the world's largest social network! Facebook is a social networking website created by Mark Zuckerberg with his co-students while they were studying computer science at Harvard university in 2004. At first, if you wanted to become a member you had to be a student at Harvard university but later on it expanded including any university student, high school students and finally anyone aged 13 and over. The site currently has more than 300.000.000 active users worldwide. We use facebook to chat with friends, exchange photos, play games, watch videos and many more! What makes facebook so popular is the fact that it keeps us in touch with our friends' lifes even if they live far away. But why would someone invest so much money to provide a tool for internet users to exchange personal information online? The answer is advertisment money and marketing companies. Facebook is gathering so much information about its users that marketing experts can use them to sell the right product to the right person! So use facebook wisely and avoid giving more information than necessary! Do you have a Facebook account? Why do you use Facebook for?

Well i believe that facebook the best chat i've ever have know!!!I bealive that all must have facebook!!!
I think that the facebook is a good idea to talk with other people play games and see some videos if you want. I have facebook and I can talk with my father who is in Germany I like very much the facebook and everyone must have facebook. In facebook you will have fun with other people or with people who you know. You must never give your adress or mobile phone beacos you never know who he/she is that is the disadvantage...:)))

Hmmm...interesting theme...
So...I've got a facebook account and I think it is a good opportunity to spend some time playing games, chatting with people all over the world( which is a good chanse to practise your english), and in a few words enterntain yourself.
Of course I don't mean that it would be wise to spend many hours hooked to facebook.
Also, this issue makes me want to mention that we all must control ourselves and reduce the hours we spend in front of our computer playing games that do not offer us anything more than enterntaiment, and gossiping about the latest trends with totaly addicted people who we don't even know. The internet must be considered as an enormous source of usefull information but now you can find any trash you want in the worldwide web.

Hello everybody! Now here's a post i was wondering when it would be published...I myself have a facebook,in order to communicate basically with my friends, and play some entertaining games.Personally i have much experience in Internet issues, so i don't matter giving my real name , adress etc. I wanted to say that facebook , is more like a fashion , specially in greece. I have seen all kinds of people having a facebook and for no serious reason.This website is actually created so that we can find people from all over the world without having to search much for them. Then they introduced chat and games. Personally i use facebook because most of my friends told me to make an account , i don't really use it but it's always a way of entertaining myself , as i mentioned before, with games. I won't give out my facebook name , because you never know who might read this and send me spamming messages , annoying me. Another benefit of Facebook , is that you can find people you knew when you were younger accidentaly.It happened to me, to my friends, and might happen to you.It's worth a try!

WELL IT'S QUITE STRANGE BUT I DON'T HAVE FACEBOOK AND I'M NOT GONNA MAKE IN THE NEAR FUTURE... I THINK THAT FACEBOOK ITSELF IS USELESS... I DON'T FIND IT INDERESTING AND IT WOULD BE A WASTE OF TIME FOR ME TO CHAT THERE... I HAD HAD A PROFILE BEFORE IN HI5 BUT IT WAS BORING... DON'T HAVE ANYTHING TO DO, ONLY IMPROVE YOUR PROFILE.... SO I CANCELLED IT.
THE ONE THAT WORHTS IS WINDOWSMESSENGER/WINDOWSLIVE WHICH OFFERS YOU THE OPPURTUNITY TO CHAT WITH PEOPLE ALL AROUND AND IT'S SAFER... YOU WILL PROBABLY ASK YOURSELVES WHAT'S THE DIFFERENCE BUT IF YOU MAKE AN ACCOUNT YOU WILL UNDERSTAND. NO GAMES NO PEOPLE THAT YOU DON'T KNOW NO WHILING AWAY, JUST COMUNICATING.... PERFECT

I don't have Facebook.It's really nice but I am not so interested about it.Of course,If you have Facebook you can do so many important things!For instance,you can communicate with friends or with your family who are far away from you or just friends you see often.It's very interesting!However, it is littlebit dangerous!Someone who use Facebook,he or she has to be careful!!

I believe that most young and older people have created a profile on facebook. Because,it can help them to socialize and learn to converse with people from abroad. It is also one way to young people to spend their free time to debate and games that exist in this web site.
Personally, I know many children who are obsessed with facebook and often do not hang out with their friends to stay home and surf the Internet. In this way neglect their friends as a result their friends to cut the communication.
I use facebook tοο, but reasonable. Facebook is my daily occupation. In my opinion, this site has helped us. If there was no facebook we would not be able to chat with other people and simultaneously play games or commenting on photos, album or video ...

The most of the facebook users spend more than 2 hours being online. So we have to think about the pros and cons of this powerful tool and decide what we have to do!

Facebook is free and accessible to anyone that has the internet. It is useful for keeping in contact with friends and family and for sharing pictures, videos and links with them. And best of all, it is free!
