8. CONGRATULATIONS … You are correct!!! CORRECT – All of these answers are true! Although originally created as a personal social networking site, Facebook has become an excellent resource for formulating business connections. It allows users to connect to important new contacts, quickly access information regarding other organizations or potential partners, and distribute and disseminate information regarding initiatives and resources. Facebook is popular not only across the United States but all over the world, providing a unique opportunity to interface with potential consumers and business connections without cost or great effort.
