Facebook is a social networking website … Users can
add people as friends and send them messages, and
update their personal profiles to notify friends about
themselves. Additionally, users can join networks
organized by workplace, school, or college. The
website's name stems from the colloquial name of
books given to students at the start of the academic
year by university administrations in the US with the
intention of helping students to get to know each
other better.
