Facebook has reached an incredible number of users — 350 million! Facebook founder, Mark Zuckerberg posted a letter on Facebook. You can read it below. Fruit for thought though…I’d love to see what his Facebook page looks like and what he’s fans of. You’d think that maybe he’d have a professional and personal account on there, but I guess he just wants to stay in the background! Anyways, check out Zuckerberg’s letter. What are your thoughts on Facebook today? Is it too public? Is it not private enough? Are there too many applications, or not enough apps? What about the constant Facebook status updates? Send us your thoughts!
— Official Letter to Facebook Users —
It has been a great year for making the world more open and connected. Thanks to your help, more than 350 million people around the world are using Facebook to share their lives online.
To make this possible, we have focused on giving you the tools you need to share and control your information. Starting with the very first version of Facebook five years ago, we’ve built tools that help you control what you share with which individuals and groups of people. Our work to improve privacy continues today.
Facebook’s current privacy model revolves around “networks” — communities for your school, your company or your region. This worked well when Facebook was mostly used by students, since it made sense that a student might want to share content with their fellow students.
Over time people also asked us to add networks for companies and regions as well. Today we even have networks for some entire countries, like India and China.
