    Which of the following statements is true about Facebook?

    A Facebook is second to Twitter in the number of registered users. Correct Answer Incorrect Answer
    B Facebook has remained a "closed system," which means outside search engines such as Google or Bing cannot catalogue information about a particular brand or topic. Correct Answer Incorrect Answer
    C Facebook is the social media website where users upload more videos to its site than any other site. Correct Answer Incorrect Answer
    D Facebook's official smartphone app uses location-based technology so users can "check- in" to local businesses to receive targeted promotional offers. Correct Answer Incorrect Answer
    E None of these Correct Answer Incorrect Answer

    Solution

    Alternative "d" is the correct answer. Alternative "a" is incorrect because Facebook is the social network with the most registered users. Alternative "b" is incorrect because in the past Facebook was a "closed system" and did not allow outside search engines such as Google or Bing to catalogue information about a brand or topic; later Facebook Pages, separate from private and personal profiles, were created as a method for brand managers to generate awareness for their product, service, or brand within Facebook. Facebook Page information is generally public and catalogued by search engines. Alternative "c" is incorrect because YouTube is the social network where users upload more videos to the website than any other social network.
