4. Tuenti Was launched in 2006 by Zaryn Dentzel, Félix
Ruiz, Joaquín Ayuso and Kenny Bentley. Dentzel
Knew Spain through an exchange that carried it to
Head of the Buey (Badajoz) and years later, as a
result of this experience, was born Tuenti. At the
beginning it went directed to university and only
some known could test it. Later, in view of his
success, allowed the entrance to more users, but
only if they had invitation. At present Tuenti has
more than 13 million users registered. The company
explains at present with more than 250 employees of
21 nationalities.

5. As Zaryn Dentzel, the name Tuenti arose of the need to
find one that included you and you. To put him name the
members of the department of marketing stirred a lot of
names; at the end they chose the name Tuenti because
you seem to "your entity", in addition to doing allusion
to the rank (university twenties) to the that went
oriented. The majority shareholder of Tuenti is
Telefónica, which the 4 of August of 2010 bought the
90% of her by an approximate figure of 72 million Euros.
Telefónica has the intention to half-long term to expand
Tuenti to other countries (mostly of Latin America and
Europe). From the 14 of November of 2011, Tuenti makes
possible the register to the network without invitation by
means of activation by SMS because of the big demand
of applications of register.

6. From the 21 of December of the 2010, Tuenti loans
service of mobile telephony like OMV of
Tuenti, under the name of Your of Tuenti. The 15 of
February of 2012 the social network launches
officially his mobile operator that was in phase of
Beta of proofs, and "Tuenti" launches a campaign of
advertising to announce his new prices. Besides, it
changes the name of his operator to Tuenti
Mobile, leaving in disuse 'Your'. Whoiswho
Technologies Is a company of computing with

SMS.

10. • What is Facebook?
• Facebook is a social networking service and
website launched in February 2004, operated
and privately owned by Facebook Inc.
Facebook has more than 900 million active
users.

11. Users must register before using the site, after which they may
create a personal profile, add other users as friends, and
exchange messages, including automatic notifications when they
update their profile. Users categorize their friends into lists such
as "People From Work" or "Close Friends". The name of the
service stems from the colloquial name for the book given to
students at the start of the academic year by some university
administrations in the United States to help students get to know
each other.

12. • Facebook was founded by Mark
Zuckerberg Eduardo Saverin, Dustin
Moskovitz and Chris Hughes. The Web
site's membership was initially limited by
the founders to Harvard students, but was
expanded to other colleges. It gradually
added support for students at various
other universities before opening to high
school students, and eventually to anyone
aged 13 and over. However, there are 7.5
million children under 13 with accounts
and 5 million under 10, violating the site's
terms of service.

13. • Users can create profiles with photos, lists of personal
interests, contact information, and other personal information.
Users can communicate with friends and other users through
private or public messages and a chat feature. They can also create
and join interest groups and "like pages" (called "fan pages" until
April 19, 2010), some of which are maintained by organizations as a
means of advertising. A 2012 Pew Internet and American Life study
identified that between 20–30% of Facebook users are "power
users" who frequently link, poke, post and tag themselves and
others.

14. • One significant difference between the two Web sites is the level of
customization. Another difference is Facebook's requirement that users
give their true identity, a demand that MySpace does not make. MySpace
allows users to decorate their profiles, while Facebook allows only plain
text. Facebook has a number of features with which users may interact.
They include the Wall; Pokes; Photos and Status. Depending on privacy
settings, anyone who can see a user's profile can also view that user's
Wall. In July 2007, Facebook began allowing users to post attachments to
the Wall, whereas the Wall was previously limited to textual content only.

15. • Active users of Facebook increased from just a
million in 2004 to over 750 million in 2011

16. • Facebook collects as much data from its visitors as Google and
Microsoft, but considerably less than Yahoo. In 2010, the security team
began expanding its efforts to reduce the risks to users' privacy, but
privacy concerns remain. On November 6, 2007, Facebook launched
Facebook Beacon, which was an ultimately failed attempt to advertise to
friends of users using the knowledge of what purchases friends made. As
of March 2012, Facebook's usage of its user data is under close scrutiny.

17. • Facebook is the leading social networking site based on monthly unique
visitors, Facebook attracted 130 million unique visitors in May 2010, an
increase of 8.6 million people. Quantcast ranks the Web site 2nd in the
U.S. in and Compete.com ranks it 1st in the U.S. The Web site is the most
popular for uploading photos, with 50 billion uploaded cumulatively.
• Facebook is the most popular social networking site in several English-
speaking countries, including Canada, the United Kingdom, and the United
States. In regional Internet markets, Facebook penetration is highest in
North America (69 percent), followed by Middle East-Africa (67
percent), Latin America (58 percent), Europe (57 percent), and Asia-Pacific
(17 percent).
