Facebook is a leading web 2 user, the maker Mark Zuckerberg ingeniously rebranded it's internal features. Such as wiki, this is a collaborative space which would be edited by anyone whom has access to this site; Facebook renamed this as 'groups'. In this feature, you're able to start a conversation, add pictures and comments. To take it further the administrators and officers have added security such as functionality and control.
Blogs has renamed as 'notes', the users can express their thoughts or opinion through this feature.
User generated content is a content that is created by the user, examples include: photos, videos and video clips.
API: Application Programming Interface, is a way to let other people intergration with your own service. Facebook adamlted this to thier 'F8 Platform'. They've allowed others to access Facebook's database and create applications, then added to the system and adopted by users.
Micro Blogging: a mini form of blogging, it a best way to provide a short message, via text, web or e-mail. Facebook's own label of micro blogging is called 'status updates'.
However there are drawbacks of Facebook. What the creator didn't count on was the amount of cyber bulling, and they're still struggling to tackle this problem. Many individuals can access your profile, pictures and private information, but this can be changed in setting, however this can vary depending on what kind device you access Facebook with.
