Happy Birthday Facebook!
The social network was founded on February 4, 2004 and a few days ago Facebook became 9 years old!
We would like to present the chronology of the Facebook, reflecting the most significant events and figures that accompanied the growth of the social giant.
Let’s have a look on the main milestones of the social network history:
Send Message to Any Facebook User for FREE
Back in December Facebook introduced a $1 charge for sending a message to the Facebook inbox of any user.
Today we’d like to share a FREE way for messaging strangers on Facebook, just have a look on a step-by-step below.
Facebook Messenger Ultimate Update
Facebook recently rolled out Messenger update for the Android operating system, that seemed to be very ambitious: its users will no longer need to have a Facebook account in order to successfully work with the application.
This is an important step of the social network on the way to the desired market dominance in the text messages area.
The possibility to communicate with your Facebook pals providing only your phone number and name for the Facebook Messaging app, can make it much more popular among users.
iTunes Credits Now on Facebook Gifts
Users of the social network now can buy iTunes credits for their friends via Facebook Gifts service.
Together with the 10, 15, 25 or 50 dollars gift certificate for Digital Content and Applications in the Apple iTunes Store, the sender can also suggest to a friend which exactly music album, movie or application to buy.
Facebook Friendship Pages Redesigned
The social network introduced a radically new design of the friendship pages. If you want to see how close you are online with a particular friend or a member of your family, your friendship page with him will show all the posts, photos and events that you shared online together.
This is a great feature – especially for those ones who are in a “relationship” with another user in Facebook.
