Growing rapidly
Facebook celebrated its 5th birthday in early February and at the time it had more than 150 million users globally.
Now the social networking site has reached a new milestone and has announced it has 200 million members worldwide.
"Growing rapidly to 200 million users is a really good start, but we've always known that in order for Facebook to help people represent everything that is happening in their world, everyone needs to have a voice," Facebook CEO, Mark Zuckerberg, wrote on the company blog.
"This is why we are working hard to build a service that everyone, everywhere can use, whether they are a person, a company, a president or an organization working for change."
Facebook is also partnering with 16 charitable and advocacy groups to create gifts for members to share with 90-95 percent of the proceeds going to the organizations and the rest to cover administrative costs.
