How Network Change My Life

Social networking is the use of online technologies to communicate with people and share information. It was used by the military-centric command and control scheme. It soon grew to the level where computers were connected for people to discuss topics of interest and even connecting with acquaintances and other people.

Social networking may have started in the 70's by a company call CompuServe. CompuServe allowed members to share files and access news and events. But it also offered something few had ever experienced – true interaction. Not only could you send a message to your friend via a technology called “e-mail”. You could also join any of CompuServe’s many discussion forums to talk with thousands of other members on virtually any important subject of the day. Those forums proved tremendously popular and paved the way for the modern networking, as we know today.

In the 80s and 90's other popular service started to grow. Service like BBS (short for Bulletin Board System) was an online place where people can meet. But if there is one service that really kick started the social network that would be... Let's ask Madam Alves cause that is in her era....

(Let me tell you or Correct)

The service was called AOL. For many people AOL was the Internet before the Internet. Its allowed its member to create communities and allow you to also search other member profiles. The ability to search for other people was arguably the most fascinating and forward thinking feature that most member of this service liked.

As we move to the millennium, more and more service started to pop up but one service changed the way we all communicated and that is FACEBOOK.
