If a large number of Internet users set Facebook as their primary destination on their Web browser, should Facebook be considered a portal?

What will be an ideal response?

Student answers will vary, but should include reference to social networks broadening their offerings to become more portal-like. An example answer is: While Facebook can be a primary destination, the goal of Facebook is to keep users occupied and communicating with each other. One of the main goals of a portal is to provide avenues to third party content and other areas of the Internet. Although social networks are aiming to include portal-like features, in order to keep and grow audiences, the primary goals of a portal currently don't include social sharing.
