Social Network

Last night I went to the movie Social Network. It was about the creator of facebook and how facebook became to be. I was a little skeptical because it didn't have very good previews, but my girlfriend really wanted to see it so I said sure why not. Turns out, it was a really good movie! It was about 2 and a half hours, but if felt like 15 minutes. It was very interesting to find out that the creator of Facebook is a college kid who kind of stole a little idea but also tweaked it very slightly. Once he created Facebook the people that he took it from got mad but didn't argue with him for a while because that is not the gentlemenly thing to do. After the people saw that Facebook was a huge hit they finally filed a lawsuit, turns out they won! Only to settle with about 65 million. To me that is a lot of money to the creator of Facebook, pocket change. Facebook is now worth over 2.5 billion dollars. The creator of Facebook became the youngest billionaire ever, and is told that he will pass Bill Gates very soon.
