My Review About "The Social Network" Movie.

Wednesday, December 15, 2010

Facebook. Currently is the most successful social networking site which was founded by the youngest billionaire in the world ; Mark Zuckerberg. Facebook Inc. which now worth 25Billion US Dollar is the most exclusive social network which offers a good social web service. Recently there's a new movie called "The Social Network" released which the storyline was based on Facebook. I watched it and it's a good movie though.

Based on the movie, the story started when Mark Zuckerberg dated a girl named Erica Albright and they broke up after that. Mark , who pissed off about what happened, he created a website called Facemash.com while he was a little intoxicated. Basically, Facemash is a website where you can rank girls based on boys selection. The website got hit by 200,000 entries within 2 hours. Harvard realised their system was choked up at 4am so they had to shut down the internet system. After that, Mark Zuckerberg was charged upon his behaviour by hacking into Harvard system and stole private information.

Winklevoss Brother's a row crew which came from the family of means, set up a meeting with Mark Zuckerberg in order to create a new project.Winklevosses and their partner Divya Narendra invited Zuckerberg to build a social network for Harvard students. Zuckerberg agreed but what he had on his mind was not by joining them.He met his bestfriend, Eduardo Saverin which now known as the Co Founder of Facebook,and told him he want to create a new social network which is a total different from Myspace and Friendster. He asked Saverin to prepared 1000 Dollar as a starter and slowly they begin to expand from school to another. Facebook now is a big deal.

Winklevosses realised this thing and they met The Board OF Harvard and asked for justice. They claimed that Mark Zuckerberg stole their idea but nothing can be done because there was no evidence. There was no agreement. Winklevosses can't do nothing while Facebook  expanding to another continent based on Sean Parker's (Founder Of Napster) help. Eduardo Saverin's share who formerly the biggest shareholder in Facebook Inc. was diluted to 0.03%. Pissed off about what happened, he sued Mark Zuckerberg & Facebook. Winklevosses sued Zuckerberg too and they won the trial. Facebook paid 60Million Dollar to Winklevosses and paid 6Million Dollar.
