Facebook is the world leading and most popular social networking site. The network has over 1 billion users and was launched in February 2004, operated and owned by Facebook, Inc.
Facebook was initially founded by Mark Zuckerberg from the dorm of his room in Harvard with his fellow college roommates and fellow Harvard University students Eduardo Saverin, Andrew McCollum, Dustin Moskovitz and Chris Hughes.
