A student of Harvard University is a founder of world’s largest social networking website Facebook.

Over half of the undergraduate students had a profile after one month.
In 2005, the company purchased facebook.com domain for $200,000 and dropped “The” from its name. Even Yahoo and Google had desired to buy Facebook, a free social network, for around $2 Billion but Mr. Zuckerberg refused to sell.
Facebook allows users to chat, manage profiles and pages, poke, send gifts to friends, play games, develop own applications, and advertise products.
