What is facebook:
Facebook is a social utility that connects people with friends and others who work, study and live around them. People use Facebook to keep up with friends, upload an unlimited number of photos, share links and videos, and learn more about the people they meet.
Anyone can join Facebook:
All that's needed to join Facebook is a valid email address. To connect with coworkers or classmates, use your school or work email address to register. Once you register, join a regional network to connect with the people in your area.
A thing that is not good for the facebook is that after the end of the acount the system do not delete us but remember us after than one month and this is good why before that keep our account for six months.
The next week will be a week which talk about the assignment (facebook, movie maker). Also we will talk and for other things about our needs for the assignment.

In the next week maybe talk for assignment and when we must be ready about that. Also we will talk maybe for facebook or video on movie maker.

The first movie maker was Windows 2000 and after that goes in all Windows and has 6 upgrades.In Windows Vista, Windows Movie Maker has been upgraded to version 6 to match the version number of the operating system, the SDK however refers to it as version 3.0.
