What to expect from f8?
F8 is the main event of the year for Facebook. This conference attracts application developers, Internet entrepreneurs, journalists and Facebook partners from around the world, because it is here that the company talks about the changes that will determine the further development of the social network itself and how it will work with other sites, applications and services.
The name f8 comes from the 8-hour program marathon, which it traditionally ends with.
The conference opens with a speech by Mark Zuckerberg, which identifies the main topics of the conference and new items that Facebook is going to show. Further work goes within the framework of several thematic streams.

Here are some examples of what Facebook ads are doing on f8:
2007 - in fact, it was at this conference that the term “social graph” (social graph) was introduced into a wide circulation. Now social graph is a common word among all those who are engaged in social networks on the Internet.
2008 - a new user profile format is introduced, but more importantly, Facebook Connect is launched. This mechanism allowed people to use their data from Facebook for authorization and communication on other sites, and other sites - the ability to integrate their news into the news feed of Facebook users. It was an important step that helped Facebook from self-contained system to become a provider of “sociality” for the rest of the Internet.
2010 - Social Plugin is introduced, known primarily as the “Like Button” . What initially seemed like a simple way to evaluate content and place it on its “wall” in practice has become one of the most important mechanisms for Facebook: “likes” not only help to rank content, but also establish connections between people and other objects (brands, movies , books, organizations, etc.). A year after the presentation, the Like button was used by 2.5 million sites, including 80 of the top 100 in the United States .
In addition, Facebook presented a less noticeable, but no less significant development: the Open Graph Protocol , which allows any site to be included in the social graph, and the Graph API for application developers.
2011 - stay tuned to this blog and news. I hope this brief retrospective gives an idea of ​​what to expect from f8.
