Facebook. One word which has turned into phenomenon over the past decade. Today Facebook as a name is synonymous with Social Media. It is rare to find someone who does not have a Facebook profile these days. My Grandma has one, my friend who runs a job portal uses his to run a background check on prospective new hires and even my dog has his own Facebook profile. But why am I stating the obvious, Facebook surely needs no introduction. We all use Facebook as part of our daily ritual and according to statistics Facebook users spend 20 minutes on average using Facebook.
