Facebook announced Wednesday (July 21) that the social media giant is now 500 million members strong, as the company continues to establish itself as an international communication tool.
Facebook says that, each month, more than 30 billion photographs, links and news articles are shared through the website, with members spending over 700 billion minutes there. Pretty powerful stuff.
To celebrate the milestone, the Facebook team has put together a collection of stories showing the impact that Facebook has had on the lives of its users.
