We thought that it's just a tool that helps us interact with the people we knew.  Back then the most commonly used social media platforms were; Friendster, which features profile modification, testimonial posting, and instant messaging. Yahoo Messenger where you do live chats and video calls, and finally Myspace, it's the same as Friendster, but with a different style of platform.

Then Facebook was born. Facebook is a social media website/platform that has the complete package of all the social media trends listed above. Facebook changes the approach of how people use and view social media. It compresses all those significant plug-ins and features in a user-friendly manner. And by doing that, it quickly changes the viewpoint of the people towards social media.
