The Social Network

This weekend I saw "The Social Network".  It was an interesting and revealing movie.  I did not realize Facebook happened by accident.  And the attitude those kids had towards women is pretty unpleasant.


Interesting how unsympathetically Zuckerberg is portrayed in the movie. And the movie left me curious what happened to Eduardo Saverin.  I did a bit of research when I got home some things became more clear.  The main source for the Ben Mezrich’s book, Accidental Billionaire, on which the movie is based was Eduardo.  This kind of helps understand the perspective from which the story was told.  And don’t feel bad for Eduardo,  he sued Zuckerberg and Facebook in April 2005 and won 7% ownership, which is roughly valued at 1.15 billion dollars.
