Facebook Emoticons is a social networking website. To flesh out this definition a bit
more, it’s an online community—a place where people can meet and
interact; swap photos, videos, and other information; and generally connect
with friends, family, coworkers, fellow students, fellow hobbyists and
enthusiasts, and numerous others in their social network. Facebook Emoticons connects
people within cities or regions, work or school, home or abroad, and
so on. Built on an architecture of profile pages that allow individual users
to share information about themselves and communicate with others,
Facebook seeks to create an environment in which members log in regularly
to keep track of what friends and colleagues are doing, share their
own activities, interact about interests and hobbies, send messages, and
join groups and networks—just to name a few things.
Facebook is fast becoming the most popular social networking site on the
Internet, quickly surpassing the previous leader, MySpace, in the number
of registered users. Offering free access and dozens of tools for connecting
people in social, school, and workplace environments, Facebook has
over 200 million active users and is growing, with 100 million logging in
daily to use the site. Over 30 million users access Facebook Emoticons through
mobile devices. Perhaps you’re wondering at this point why so many people
are flocking to Facebook Emoticons? That’s easy—it’s incredibly simple to use.

As a social networking site, Facebook Emoticons acts much like a broadcasting service,
sharing news about its members wherever they are. However, rather
than tuning in to see general news about everyone on the site or stories
selected entirely by Facebook Emoticons, your news is narrowed down to just the
people you know—your friends, family, coworkers, or colleagues. The
news that is shared, whether it’s status updates, photos, or the latest group
someone joined, is referred to as stories on Facebook Emoticons. This news is also
called feed stories or news feed stories. The information that appears on
the Home page is a constant stream of stories about the activities and pursuits
of your friends. The official name for this is news feeds. The stories
that appear on your profile are called mini-feeds because they’re all about
you.
For example, anytime you post a status update on your Wall, it’s a story
on your mini-feed—information dedicated to you.
