Facebook is a global social network used for communities, messaging, and broad social reach. For most users, the main value is quick access to social, community, and network, whether that means finding information, completing a workflow, or comparing options with less friction. This is part of the Social category because its main function aligns with themes like social, community, and network, and that makes it a useful example of the sites grouped under mass-audience social platforms where people publish, follow trends, message, and stay connected online rather than a mixed collection of unrelated services.
