COMPANY HISTORY
“Facebook,” launched by Mark Zuckerberg in February 2004, initially connected Harvard University students. It evolved into a global social media platform, facilitating user interaction, content sharing, and networking on a remarkable scale, fundamentally reshaping online communication and social dynamics.
In August 2005, Facebook bought the domain name Facebook.com, making it easier for people to find and use the website. This helped Facebook become more well-known and easier to use as it became a popular social networking site worldwide.
Facebook settled with ConnectU in June 2008, paying $65 million to resolve a legal dispute. This settlement ended legal proceedings over allegations of idea theft and intellectual property, allowing Facebook to focus on its growth and development without legal distractions.
In August 2009, Facebook acquired FriendFeed, a real-time feed complier and social media platform. This purchase aimed to enhance Facebook’s news feed and real-time updating capabilities, integrating FriendFeed’s technology and talent to improve user experience and engagement.
In July 2010, Facebook acquired Nextstop, a travel recommendation site. This takeover aimed to integrate Nextstop’s community-driven travel tips and advice into Facebook’s platform, enhancing user engagement and providing personalized travel recommendations to its vast user base.
