Facebook is now for Everybody

It seems like Facebook is becoming for everybody. When it first started out, it was limited to college students and you had to have a college email address to join. Then it opened it's doors to anybody and all youth started joining. Then, older people started to get into the act since it's simple easy to use nature appealed to them.

Then even older people joined. Not that I'm calling my mom old, but she is on Facebook now. If you had told me five years ago that my mom would be on Facebook, I would have laughed. But yet, there she is. My friend. It's kind of cool in a way. Some others would be inclined to disagree. There's an article about the explosion of the older demographic on Facebook after the jump. Enjoy.
