Today is the day when our lifeline Facebook was invented with the first batch of students signing up for what was back then known as TheFacebook.com. Now Facebook has nearly 2.5 billion monthly active users, it changed the concept of communication amongst the people across the globe.
It was built to bring Harvard students together allowing them to share their day-to-day lives with friends and colleagues. Back then it was the best platform that lets people post photographs, share information and college activities amongst themselves.
What began as a mere place to connect with the people around the college grew into an opportunity to connect and network with people.
Mark Zuckerberg, The Facebook CEO talked about the tools his company was building for businesses in the post. “We’re building commerce tools to give more than 200 million small businesses the same tools that historically only bigger companies have had — from tools to reach customers to ways to easily set up a shop on Facebook and Instagram even when your physical store is closed,” he wrote.
17 years ago, the first students signed up for Facebook and started connecting with friends. It’s been a wild journey…
