Facebook has the second highest number of users in the world (behind YouTube) and is the most predominant social networking site (Janusz 125). Also, with more than 10 billion pictures, Facebook has become the largest photo site on the Web (Summers Newsweek.com, Beaver Facebook.com). Facebook use among college students is a very interesting research considering that in 2006 about 91% of college students had sites (Pempek et. al 228).

In this, I will discuss Facebook has integrated into mass culture.
