Other info:
Facebook is a social utility that connects people with friends and others who work, study and live around them. Facebook was founded by Mark Zuckerberg with fellow computer science major students and his roommates Dustin Moskovitz and Chris Hughes while he was a student at Harvard University. At Facebook, you can set your profile on private as to prevent acquaintances from contacting you. You can also set your profile on public. This allows close friends to send messages and add you as a friend. It lets you update your personal profile to notify your close friends about yourself.
Key features:
