To start with the obvious, Facebook was a simple Harvard project that Mark and his dorm roommates founded in 2004 serving the social networking needs of Harvard students. This website was initially called as ‘Facemash’ and also ‘thefacebook’ and was later being used by the students of various universities. Mark discovered peoples interest behind social networking and launched the website and has now attracted over a billion users in this short period. Facebook is also now an IPO having every share initially priced at $38 making it one of the richest in its kind.
So, Best of luck in getting those facebook shares and if you get some flaunt them all, they are really worth.
