The Facebook is truly a killer app for incoming freshmen – as they prepare to start a new life in a new place, surrounded by a new social network, the Facebook presents a highly interactive way to explore this new space.

This is information students need to know, and it helps them get situated in their new social networks. —Fred Stutzman —Adopting the Facebook: A Comparative Analysis (Unit Structures)
