Facebook recently hit the benchmark of 1 billion active users on a single day. The latest analysis by App Annie, the app store analytics firm revealed that Facebook has become the most popular and the most downloaded app of all times. As happy as everyone in the Facebook community (users and employees alike), we decided to get you some fun facts about your beloved social media, which by the way, is almost as severelycriticized by some tech and media business houses.

Let’s see some of the Facebook facts, although you might know a few of them:

1. FaceBlue Is It?

Wonder why Facebook is all blue? Facebook issues subtle changes in its interface regularly but never changed from its trademark blue color. It is not because Zuckerberg likes blue, but actually he can’t see other colors that well. He has got a red-green color blindness.

2. Height of Confidence

You would be amazed to see the multi-billion dollar offers that Zuckerberg turned down for his Facebook. Rejecting a $15 billion deal from Microsoft would have required some serious guts. Now, that is called confidence. Read more
