Facebook was one of the first social networks to gain followers and was also the first to revolutionize the way we communicate on the Internet (although at that time, Tuenti was more popular in Spain).
Mark Zuckerberg launched Facebook on February 4, 2004, while he was a sophomore at Harvard.
Initially, the platform was called "Thefacebook" and was intended to be an exclusive social network for Harvard students.
The website was created with the aim of allowing college students to connect with each other and share information about events, classes, and campus activities.
It quickly expanded to other universities in the United States and later opened up to anyone over the age of 13 with a valid email address.
In October 2005, the company dropped "The" from its name and became "Facebook."
Over the years, Facebook has evolved and adapted to changing times, with its ups and downs.
It acquired Instagram, WhatsApp, and created Threads, all now under the "Meta" brand.
The social network has undergone various modifications, adding features such as the ability to sell products, watch videos, go live, have conversations, play mini-games with other users, and much more.
Although its popularity has declined, it remains a significant platform and complements the other social networks owned by the company perfectly.
The advantage is that Meta's advertising system allows you to post on Instagram, Threads, and Facebook simultaneously, adapting the ads for the different platforms.
