Facebook for the public

Facebook was launched on February 4, 2004, by Mark Zuckerberg.  The sole motive behind Facebook was to bring the whole world together onto a single platform. Today if we are connected with all our friends, family, and acquaintances, it is all because of Facebook. If this social platform is used in a good way, it will spread love, motivation, and encouragement among its users. There are many introvert people who are not good at expressing themselves, and they find Facebook very useful to speak their hearts out. Facebook is helping people to be more sociable and to remain connected.
