Remember your first experience on Facebook? My first log-in was in a college dorm at University of Oregon where a group of friends told me how important this social networking tool was because of its ability to connect you to friends, view photos, meet people, and join campus groups. Now, as a fifth year member, I can congratulate Facebook for reaching 200 million members.
“We will welcome our 200 millionth user to Facebook sometime today,” wrote Zuckerberg, who’s just over a month away from his 25th birthday. “Growing rapidly to 200 million users is a really good start, but we’ve always known that in order for Facebook to help people represent everything that is happening in their world, everyone needs to have a voice.”
When I joined, the primary target was college students. Now, Facebook has expanded to members of all ages, backgrounds and personalities. Some members were hesitant for this change, but apparently it proves to work for Facebook now that its member total reached the 200 million mark. Like any other business though, the company goal is continued growth for the future.
