First social network site was launched in 1997. SixDegrees.com helped users to create profiles, list their friends. Social networking became the source of connecting scientists and researchers around the world. With the passage of time the system has grown, the more connected community has become. In 1996 a big step was taken with the beginning of ICQ, a free instant messaging app.
