“HARVARD THING” UNTIL ZUCKERBERG DECIDED TO SPREAD IT TO OTHER SCHOOLS
ENLISTING THE HELP OF ROOMATE DUSTIN MOSKOVITZ. ZUCKERBERG , MOSKOVITZ AND
SOME FRIENDS MOVED TO PALO ALTO, CALIFORNIA IN SILICON VALLEY WHERE THEY LEASED A SMALL HOUSE THAT SERVED AS AN OFFICE.
BEGINNING FROM THAT OFFICE, THEY EXTENDED THEIR WORK OPEN FOR THE WORLD. STARTING FROM FACEMASH, NOW FACEBOOK IS THE WORLD’S LARGEST
SOCIAL MEDIA PLATFORM. MARK ZUCKERBERG, WHO BEGAN AS THE CEO OF FACEBOOK IS STILL OPERATION ON HIS POST AND DISCUSS ABOUT SIR APJ ABDUL KALAM’S LIFE.
