Facebook was launched in 2004, from then onwards they have changed many features and design but they are sticking with the same color that is Blue, not changed to gray, red, green or any other colors. Not even with the desktop website but also in mobile app the color of Facebook is Blue. The reason behind the Blue color is that the founder of Facebook, Mark Zuckerberg (born May 14, 1984) is having red-green color blindness and the best color he can see is Blue.

The Facebook founder told the magazine: “Blue is the richest color for me”.

This was the secret behind the Facebook being Blue in color.
