Happy 10th Birthday Facebook




On the 4th February,2004,Mark Zuckerberg launched Facebook from his dorm room exclusively for college students. I read with interest last week in Saturday's Age that ten years on,it now has 1.23 billlion active users,80% residing outside of North America.The biggest audience is now  from people over 65 which is worrisome for Facebook.Once  parents and grandparents pick up on a trend  there is no longer any "cool " factor  for the young and beautiful to be associated with that product.16-18 year olds  are therefore  leaving Facebook in droves and looking eleswhere for their social media of choice. For your further interest and to see what young people are turning to  read Cybersmart's Facebook "Dead and Buried with Teens
