xml - What format do sites like Facebook use to store data for personal profiles? -

rather being stored in xml file, facebook uses relational database--specifically, modified version of mysql. if you're interested in implementation, mysql official site has whole page of articles related facebook's mysql usage @ http://www.mysql.com/customers/view/?id=757
