Mark Zuckerberg’s Take on The Social Network Movie

The Social Network takes the No. 1 spot and takes in $23 million. I guess lots of people were wondering who's the makers of facebook and how did it start. The Social Network is a dramatization about the founders of Facebook and how the site came into existence. Mark Zuckerberg's character, as portrayed by Jesse Eisenburg. Mark Zuckerberg wasn't exactly the good guy in the movie. So what did the inventor of facebook say about the movie?

"It's interesting what stuff they focused on getting right," Mark Zuckerberg said during an interview at the Y-combinator event. "Like, every single shirt and fleece that I had in that movie is actually a shirt or fleece that I own." Zuckerberg said there was quite a bit the movie makers got wrong and "a bunch of random details that they got right." But one of the things that Zuckerberg mentioned that was wrong in the movie was the
portrayal of a girlfriend at the beginning of the movie who ends up dumping him. According to Zuckerberg, she doesn't exist, though he has been dumped before "in real life, a lot."

Zuckerberg also said that he did not create Facebook just to meet girls. "Movie makers just can't wrap their heads around the idea that someone might build something because they like building things," Zuckerberg explains.

Mark Zuckerberg (born May 14, 1984) is an American entrepreneur known for co-founding the popular social networking site Facebook. Zuckerberg created Facebook in February 2004, initially as an exclusive network for Harvard students at his form room. Today, Facebook is the world’s largest social network with over 500 million users. 26-year-old Zuckerberg is worth over billions dollars and is the Youngest Billionaire in the world. At that age, wow right?
