 Facebook is the only obvious site that is experiencing an upward
trending growth .

 LinkedIn and Twitter also appear to be growing at a steady pace .

Both Twitter and LinkedIn serve different needs and aren’t much of a threats
to Facebook (yet).

important
.That the site was founded in order to forget the girl who thinks about her-

.make problem between company and between people -

People can steal anything from Face book, such as emails -

.and no copyright

.We can't trust some information in it -

Some people put some information and picture that affect in bad way in -
.our religion
