Facebook, founded by Mark Zuckerberg along with his college roommates Andrew McCollum, Eduardo Saverin, Chris Hughes, and Dustin Moskovitz, started its journey in February 2004 as a social networking platform initially limited to Harvard University students. It quickly expanded to other Ivy League universities and eventually opened its doors to anyone with a valid email address in 2006.
The platform's growth was phenomenal, becoming a global social media giant. Over the years, Facebook introduced numerous features and acquired several companies to enhance its offerings. Some key milestones include:
News Feed (2006): The introduction of the News Feed feature, which displayed a curated stream of updates from friends, was met with mixed reactions initially but became a core part of the Facebook experience.
Acquisition of Instagram (2012): Facebook acquired the popular photo-sharing app Instagram for $1 billion. Instagram continued to operate independently but benefited from Facebook's resources.
Acquisition of WhatsApp (2014): Facebook acquired the messaging app WhatsApp for $19 billion, making it one of the largest tech acquisitions in history. WhatsApp also operated independently.
IPO (2012): Facebook went public with its initial public offering, symbolizing its transition from a privately-held startup to a publicly-traded company.
Expansion into Virtual Reality (2014): Facebook acquired Oculus VR, a virtual reality technology company, signaling its interest in the future of VR.
Cambridge Analytica Scandal (2018): Facebook faced significant backlash after it was revealed that the political consulting firm Cambridge Analytica had accessed and used user data without consent, leading to increased scrutiny of the platform's data privacy practices.
Rebranding to Meta (2021): In a significant move, Mark Zuckerberg announced that Facebook would rebrand the parent company as "Meta." This was accompanied by a new focus on the development of the metaverse, a virtual shared space.
Instagram, often stylized as "IG" or "Insta," is a popular social media platform that focuses on sharing photos and videos. It was co-founded by Kevin Systrom and Mike Krieger and launched in October 2010. Instagram was initially available exclusively on iOS devices, creating a buzz for its simple yet visually engaging platform. In 2012, Instagram expanded to Android, widening its user base significantly.
Here are some key milestones in Instagram's journey:
Filters and Square Photos (2010): Instagram introduced filters and the iconic square photo format, allowing users to add creative effects to their pictures.
Facebook Acquisition (2012): Facebook acquired Instagram for $1 billion in April 2012. This move brought resources and infrastructure to Instagram and helped it grow even faster.
Video Sharing (2013): In June 2013, Instagram added the ability to share short videos, competing with Vine, a popular video-sharing app at the time.
Stories (2016): Instagram launched Stories in August 2016, a feature heavily inspired by Snapchat. Stories allowed users to share ephemeral content that disappeared after 24 hours.
IGTV (2018): In June 2018, Instagram introduced IGTV, a platform for sharing longer-form vertical videos. It aimed to compete with YouTube.
Shopping and Business Tools (2018): Instagram developed tools for businesses to promote products and services, and it introduced shopping features, making it easier for users to discover and buy products directly from the app.
Hiding Likes (2019): In some regions, Instagram began hiding the number of likes on posts to reduce the pressure of popularity metrics.
Reels (2020): Instagram launched Reels, a short-form video feature similar to TikTok, in August 2020, expanding its video-sharing capabilities.
