Facebook surpasses yet another milestone – 500 million users. Quite the accomplishment for a company launched out of a Harvard dorm room six years ago. Forget the hoopla surrounding the books, movies, and lawsuits, amazingly enough, Facebook has room to grow. In fact, while the number of U.S. users has begun to plateau, the site is spreading like wildfire across South America and Europe. Experts say with the international progress made in recent months, the site could potentially eclipse 1 billion friends.
In honor of the 500th million user Facebook is producing a special called “500 Million Stories” which offer users the opportunity to share their best experiences with the site. So, what’s your Facebook story?
