Facebook has become a phenomenon for the social networking set and what makes it so amazing is that...
Facebook did not even exist untill this modern generation. it was created to allow people to network and meet each other and it has caught on with both young and old people around the globe.
The impact that facebook has today allow people who probably never would have met each other in person to communicate,it creates new relationship and friends, and it places distance between people who could not communicate in person but instead choose to communicate online, instead
I think it is just another way of society interested in sharing information with the intimacy of a close personal relationship.
