The base of Facebook is the development of various groups in accordance with the living region, organization to which people belong (university, college) and, of course, interests. The groups may have various levels of access, for example, some of them are closed and can be accessed just by the members confirmed by the creator of the group. Within a group there is a chance to plan common activities, like parties, visiting cinema or theater. It is also possible to display messages on the advertising panel (for instance, if you'd like to obtain or sell a certain object).
