Description of Facebook Most members join a network, which can be either a geographic network (city, state), a college or university network, or a worksite network (employer of the member). Members may add as many friends as they like. A Facebook member is given a news-feed page, which consists of status updates of the member and their friends. Probably the most popular aspect of Facebook is the built-in chat program that allows friends to chat in real time.
