Originally, Facebook Zuckerberg developed in the college dorm room at Harvard. The first members who joined the Facebook is own friends. Within two weeks, a third of Harvard students has become a permanent member of Facebook.

A number of things he found in connection with Facebook, including the accusation that mention the actual design of artificial Facebook. In the midst of some controversy, the name Mark Zackerberg Facebook and many people remain popular.

Facebook was actually created as a social networking site limited to college among the creators, ie, Mark Zuckerberg. Student-Harvard University is the time-trying to create a program that can connect one college friends. Therefore, a site that was initiated by Mark is on Facebook. This name he took from the book of Facebook, which is a book that usually contains a list of community members in a single campus. In a number of colleges and preparatory schools in the United States, this book is given to students or new faculty staff in order to get to know other people on campus concerned.
At around the year 2004, Mark who was tinkering with a hobby website creation program successfully wrote the original code Facebook from his dorm room. To make this site, it only takes about two weeks. Men born in May 1984 it announced its site and then pulled her colleagues to join. Only in a relatively short period-about two weeks, Facebook has been able to capture two-thirds more Harvard students as a permanent member.
Facebook is able to find a strong magnet to attract more people to join, he decided to follow in the footsteps senior-Bill Gates dropped out to pick it menyeriusi site. Together with three colleagues, Andrew McCollum, Dustin Moskovitz and Chris Hughes, Mark then Facebook opened membership to the public.
Mark was not just reckless. He had many reasons for preferring menyeriusi Facebook. Mark and his colleagues managed to create a social networking site Facebook which immediately soared name, follow the trend of Friendster, which was also developed at that time. However, in order to have more value, Mark was treating Facebook with additional features. And, it seems this feature advantages that make Facebook even more popular. Imagine, There are 9373 applications that are divided into 22 categories that can be used to enliven Facebook page, start a chat, games, instant message, until the political affairs and various other things. Remarkably again, the nature of the site is very open membership. Thus, the data that made each person more clearly than any other friendship sites. This makes people more comfortable with Facebook to make friends, both those already known or to find new acquaintances in different parts of the world.
Since the emergence of Facebook last year 2004, members continued to grow rapidly. Percentage increase exceeds the seniors, Friendster. The site listed has been visited by 60 million people and even Mark Zuckerberg dared to target in the year 2008 this figure will reach 200 million members.
With all the advantages and the number of exceptional applicants, Facebook has become 'commodities' that very behavior. Not surprisingly, the software giant Microsoft is interested ask for her hand. And, supposedly, to have only a 1.6 percent share, Microsoft should spend no less than U.S. $ 240 million. This means that Facebook stock capitalization value could reach U.S. $ 15 billion! Not surprisingly, Mark later crowned as the youngest billionaire in history who started from his own sweat.
Mark Zuckerberg's intention to simply 'together' in a network of campus community turned out to have a major impact. This has brought a new man 23-year-old became the youngest billionaire in history. Indeed, foresight to see opportunity and good intentions the reality can be combined into an exceptional value. This is an example to us, that good intentions plus a struggle and perseverance in capturing the opportunities will bear the opportunity that can change lives more meaningful.
