L'AMBASSADRICE IS giving up on her blog, but so much into facebook*

Que nous dit ce cher Wikipedia à propos du "livre-visage" ??

"Facebook is a social networking website which was launched on February 4, 2004.

In the beginning, the membership was restricted to students of Harvard University. It was subsequently expanded to other Boston area schools (Boston College, Boston University, MIT, Tufts), Stanford, and all Ivy League schools within two months. Many individual universities were added in rapid succession over the next year. Eventually most US college and many Canadian university students with a university (.edu) email address were eligible to join. There was a separate network initiated for US high schools. Since 11 September 2006, it has been made available to any email address[2] user who inputs a certain age range. Users can select to join one or more participating networks, such as a high school, place of employment, or geographic region.

As of July 2007, the website had the largest number of registered users among college-focused sites with over 34 million active members worldwide (also from non-collegiate networks).[3] In July 2007[4] it was ranked between top 10–13 web sites, and was the number one site for photos in the United States, ahead of public sites such as Flickr, with over 8.5 million photos uploaded daily.[5] It is also the seventh most visited site in the United States.[6].

The name of the site refers to the paper facebooks depicting members of the campus community that US colleges and preparatory schools give to incoming students, faculty, and staff."



Un phenomène qui fait la couverture de newsweek quand même !

Vous l'aurez compris, on ne jurera plus que par les batailles de nachos, les compatibility tests et autres e-tournées alcoolisées ou non...
On est fan, tout comme les 35 autres millions d'utilisateurs. Et surtout il est de bon ton de faire la guerre ouverte aux partisans de myspace.

TBC...
