Facebook is a highly-popular social networking platform launched in February 2004 that currently has more than 500 million active users.
After creating an account, members can add others as friends, send them messages, view their photos, and post status messages on their personal profiles that serve as notifications for friends.
All these actions can also be performed using Facebook clients without needing to access one's account using a browser.
Users will be able to easily upload several images at the same time.
These applications will also offer users the possibility to update their status messages without opening a web browser, or to receive notifications whenever friends post something new.
