Creator of Facebook:
Mark Elliot Zuckerberg is an American Internet entrepreneur and the
creator of Facebook with some Harvard College students. He was
born in New York in 1984. He studied at Harvard College where he
created Facebook.
Mark Zuckerberg is also a philanthropist because in 2015, he made
The Chan Zuckerberg initiative, a charitable fund to which he
promised to donate 99 percent of their wealth over their lifetimes.
Mark is also the world youngest billionaire.
Facemash
Diapo 4
Before creating Facebook, Mark Zuckerberg invented Facemash,
which compared the pictures of two students on Harvard campus
and allowed users to vote on which one was more attractive. The
program became wildly popular but was later shut down by Harvard
administration after it was considered inappropriate.

Based on the buzz of his previous projects, Mark and three of his
colleague students (Divya Narendra, and twins Cameron and Tyler
Winklevoss) started working on a new idea: a social networking site
they called Harvard Connection.
This site was designed to use information from Harvard's student
networks to create a dating site for the Harvard elite. Zuckerberg
helped with the project but dropped it out to work on his own social
networking site: The Facebook.

The site that allows users to create their own profiles, upload photos,
and communicate with other users. The group ran the site from their
dorm room at Harvard University until June 2004.
That year, Zuckerberg quitted college and moved the company to Palo
Alto, California.
