“The Social Network”
“People want to go online and check out their
friends, so why not build a website that offers
that? Friends, pictures, profiles, whatever you can
visit, browse around, maybe it's someone you just
met at a party. Eduardo, I'm not talking about a
dating site, I'm talking about taking the entire social
experience of college and putting it online.”
Mark Zuckerberg (Jesse Eisenberg)
