Facebook

Facebook, arguably the largest social networking site at present, is a gold mine of socially relevant content which include news ranging from local to international,  informative articles gathered elsewhere are shared by peers, stories and images that are not on mainstream news channels but deserving of high visibility and readership, and so much more.

As a testament to the power of social media and how social networks can be used to spread relevant information like wildfire, The [Unofficial] Facebook Herald was born.

The vision of the Facebook Herald is to become a reliable, credible, and updated source of informative articles, news, entertainment, and stories that are trending on Facebook.

Its mission is to bring attention to socially relevant issues and information present in Facebook (and possibly other social networks soon), and put them to mainstream media.

This has been inspired by the fact that for so long, Facebook has become my first source of news and social information, and that I envision to bring these socially relevant articles to the attention of the less-Facebook-savvy audience.

Let us harness the power of social networking to bring news and information across the globe.
