Users information such as name, relationship status, age and also personal opinions are displayed on their pages. Although some of this information can be hidden depending on a users liking. Users can also upload their photos and videos for easy recognition. Users can also add groups and invite other people to join the groups. The site gives you a list of all the confirmed friends you have and also gives you another for other people a user might know. Facebook also has a text box for updating one’s status where users can let their friends know what they are up to. Since Facebook is really popular business entities can also use this as a marketing tool by registering the companies.
