i think the AJAX response is great and it makes pages load quite smoothly and in fact like desktop application. I also like because all my friends are with facebook.
nah, the owner saw that there were a lot of simple minded people who have nothing to do with their lifes' other than to talk rumors and act like 10yr olds so he made a site perfect for them. lol
Facebook is expected to say this week that it has reached 500 million users, making it the biggest information network on the Internet in a meteoric rise that has connected the world into an online statehood of status updates, fan pages and picture exchanges.
I think, people were more on orkut but since orkut is acquired by google, orkut has lost all its value! So, people switched to FB
Hey, simple. If you have opened social network site before 10 years, you would have done it success, because at that time, there was no other social network much popular. First of all, facebook did not done worldwide. First they released to hardward university for their students, then later on, by refer and refer, they got visitors from worldwide. So, they released worldwide.
I hate facebook! its useless and its for losing time and making your life boring! the only good thing is that you can advertise your site there but thats classic now!
facebook got everything under one platform to make the people enjoy the time with it. Starting from its layout, quick commenting option, chatting, huge availability of applications, logo and to its promotional options everything has been professionally designed to give its best.
Its user-friendly interface and social networking features which allow users to share their pictures with friends easily. And the fact that it's free to use only helped as others have noted.
you can have fun playing with the applications, chatting with friends and check out new stuffs in marketing
