Facebook Assignment

1.       Mark is most passionate about coding he is willing to sacrifice a lot in pursuit of his goals.
2.       He got in trouble because he took private pictures of the students and used them for FaceMash.
3.       He’s not in it for the money he’s in it because he’s likes what he does.
4.       This idea was unique because it was exclusive.
5.       His motivation was to create a website that was different than all the other social network sites.
6.       Mark and Eduardo were best friends their friendship broke down because Mark screwed Eduardo out of Facebook.
7.       Mark got the idea when of his coders asked him if a girl in Marks class was single.
8.       Mark doesn’t want to put ads on Facebook because he thinks that will make Facebook uncool  think he made the right choice.
9.       He expands the site to other schools after he talks to his ex-girlfriend at a restaurant Erica’s role in this is that hasn’t heard of Facebook which makes Mark want to expand.
10.   Some people are drawn to this because they feel that the internet is a safe place to vent about all their problems.
11.   The typed word is so powerful because once it’s on the internet it’s there forever it’s tempting to misuse this power because it’s an easy way to say bad things about people you don’t like.  When social networks are used to their full potential they can be used for positive thing like charities.

13.    Coolness and money play a big role in the movie.   I think some people wouldn't care and others would feel wronged or violated.

15.  Mark used the comment section on Facebook to cheat on his exam.
