In half a decade, Facebook has gone from a dorm-room novelty to a company with 500 million users. It is one of the fastest growing companies in history, an essential part of the social life not only of teenagers but millions of adults worldwide. As Facebook spreads around the globe, it creates surprising effects--even becoming instrumental in political protests. Veteran technology reporter David Kirkpatrick had the full cooperation of Facebook's key executives in researching the history of the company and its impact on our lives. Kirkpatrick tells us how Facebook was created, why it has flourished, and where it is going next. He chronicles its successes and missteps, and gives readers the most complete assessment anywhere of founder and CEO Mark Zuckerberg.--From publisher description. 610 20 $a Facebook (Firm) 650 0 $a Internet industry $z United States. 650 0 $a Online social networks $x History. 941 $a 7 952 $l PLAX964 $d 20230718090445.0 952 $l RUPC135 $d 20200625010119.0 952 $l PMAX975 $d 20191119044407.0 952 $l ULAX314 $d 20190926093823.0 952 $l URAX314 $d 20170609025954.0 952 $l XFPB697 $d 20141001043833.0 952 $l WUPB305 $d 20120928012520.0 956 $a http://locator.silo.lib.ia.us/search.cgi?index_0=id&term_0=E02CDBB87ACA11E0ACCC1D996AFF544E 994 $a C0 $b IOMInitiate Another SILO Locator Search
