According to the comic strip, Calvin

[1] Facebook is the world’s largest social

network, with 800 million users worldwide as

of September 2011.

More than any other company, it has

[5] defined what …….. see as the “social’' era of

the Internet, in which connections made

among people replace algorithm-driven

searches. And its policies, more than any

others, seem to be driving the definition of

[10] privacy in this new age.

Every day, Facebook users comment or

press the “like” button more than 2 billion

times and upload more than 250 million

photos. The McKinsey Global Institute has

[15] estimated that the network’s users post 30

billion pieces of content …….. month

The company, founded in 2004 by a

Harvard sophomore, Mark Zuckerberg, began

life catering first to Harvard students and then

[20] to all high school and college students. It has

since evolved into a broadly popular online

destination used by teenagers and adults of

all ages. In country after country, Facebook

has cemented itself as the leader, often

[25] displacing other social networks.

It is …….. surprise that Facebook has

become one of the titans of the Internet,

challenging even Google with its vision of a

Web tied together by personal relationships

[30] and recommendations, rather than by search

algorithms. In a major expansion, Facebook

has spread itself across other Web sites by

offering members the chance to “Like”

something — share it with their network —

[35] without leaving the Web page they are on.

At the Facebook developer conference in

September, the company announced the

release of a product called Timeline, which

offers a highly visual view of a user’s

[40] Facebook profile and organizes content into

photos, events and apps, all based on a

timeline view that stretches back to the

beginning of a user’s time on Facebook.

Timeline is designed to work on mobile

[45] devices, too.
