ONE POPULAR SOCIAL NETWORKING PLACE USED BY YOUTH IN INDIA
1. Facebook is an online social networking service. Facebook was founded in
February 2004 by Mark Zuckerberg with his college roommates and fellow
Harvard University students Eduardo Saverin, Andrew McCollum, Dustin Moskovitz
and Chris Hughes. The founders had initially limited the website's membership to
students of the University of Harvard, but later expanded it to colleges in the
Boston area, the Ivy League, and Stanford University. It gradually added support
for students at various other universities before it opened to high school students,
and eventually to anyone ages 13 and over. Facebook now allows anyone who
claims to be at least 13 years old to become a registered user of the website.
