India — Social networking site Facebook is opening an operations office in India, its first in Asia, to help manage rapid growth in the number of users

The office, in the southern Indian city of Hyderabad, will have advertising and developer support teams, the company said Monday. It will supplement Facebook's other centers in Palo Alto; Dublin, Ireland; and Austin, Texas.

The move is part of a push to create support centers across time zones, with round-the-clock, multilingual support, the company said.

"We expect our new office in Hyderabad to tap into the region's strong pool of talented people who understand operations and technology, and help us more effectively serve the needs of our users, advertisers and developers around the world," Don Faul, director of global online operations, said in a statement.

Facebook has seen its number of users rocket to over 400 million since it was founded in 2004. It has about 8 million users in India.
