Mark Zuckerberg: Inside FacebookIn just seven years, Mark Zuckerberg has gone from his Harvard college dorm to running a business with 800 million users, and a possible value of $100 billion.

His idea to make the world more open and connected has sparked a revolution in communication, and now looks set to have a huge impact on business too.

Emily Maitlis reports on life inside Facebook. Featuring a rare interview with Zuckerberg himself, the film tells the story of Facebook's creation, looks at the accuracy of The Social Network movie, and examines Facebook's plans to use the personal information it has collected to power a new kind of online advertising.

Wow, even though I do see some correct things in this comment thread, I must say that a lot of you saying that Facebook is bad, seem really paranoid. I mean, a mother who got her kids Facebook passwords? That's just wrong in so many ways. Give them some privacy for **** sake!

How can you say that a man like Zuckerberg is bad?
He developed a network, making people across the globe able to communicate with each other in just seconds. How isn't that amazing? I doubt that any of you have neither the creativity nor the intellectual capacity to even come up with an idea remotely close to what he made.

People have to worry about everything. If you d not like Facebook, do not use it and shut up.

People need to be more concerned about Congress than facebook.

LOL - that girl at the beginning "4921 friends" - you just walk around knowing that?! ah, that made me laugh - I can remember having something like 130 at one point and then actually looking through them and thinking how I don't know over half them, I don't really care about what they are doing, and I don't really want them knowing personal details about me. I have something like 75 now. I love how the 4921 friends thing was followed by "more than I have in real life" - so true!

What's silly is that someone told me facebook has been the cause of divorces -- I almost found it hard to believe until I started to think about it.

All of this monitoring of people's information is really scary - but I wonder how much someone can really live off the grid without losing aspects of your life you find important. I found out recently about those chips in the smart-meters that communicate with other chips in new appliances and tvs, storing your personal data and purchasing/viewing preferences for various reasons. *shudders* I guess you just have limit the amount of gratuitous personal information you yourself put out there -- although it truly seems "they" will find out one way or another

Ya, look at us all typing our little comments here...on cyber land...never knew you, never will...at least on facebook some people have physical memories together....lol
I'm on facebook 'cause that's how i connect with my girls and my family in Quebec other than in person. I find it quite funny to see how facebookers have 200-500 friends, as if there was a contest at one time...who's got the most friends they don't know and don't want to know.

Yep, I definitely expected the tone of comments. I find on sites like this, it's just cool to hate what the "rest of us" like, and of course, a big overreaction to something that's really not a big deal. Facebook is just a new way to communicate; living away from home, I'm happy I have it. There are so many friends I may have stopped talking to that I maintain a good relationship with through Facebook. When I see them once in a while, I feel like I still know about their lives, the fact that I live so far away doesn't make a difference. Plus, it allows you to talk to people as much as possible. If you don't want their phone blowing up, FB chat them. Share pictures, links, videos and discuss them. Share pictures of times together. Create events on Facebook; I basically made my plans for New Year's Eve all on Facebook with my friends. Couldn't do it as efficiently with anything else.

I've become closer with a lot of friends through it, I love Facebook, and probably will for the foreseeable future. I bet when the telephone first came out, people said: "oh, great, now NO ONE will talk in person anymore! Society will collapse!!" Yet again, another overreaction to changing means of communication between people. Facebook doesn't replace human interaction, it helps facilitate it.

What I find funny is that people flock to these social networks in droves its like fashion that repeats itself every couple of years. Myspace facebook twitter its all the same just a different name in my opinion. I remember when I started college blackplanet was the IT social network for all the college kids...I don't have a facebook account. When I finally went ahead and started a myspace account by pressure from friends saying You need a Myspace everyone has a Myspace it wasn't even the IT social network because everybody had flocked to FaceBook hell who barely goes to myspace anymore. Facebook will be replaced with some other IT social network just with a different Name. Same game different face different ceo's from the mark zuckerbergs to the bill gates there is no difference its all about the paper chase........Peace

Facebook, and all others that are similar, skype, tv with cams, pc with cams etc: are part of what is called "the cloud" all the info that is posted on facebook and such, live on these servers. Which are a collection of multiple, tangible "clouds" remotely accessed server farms that store info, host software, and handle data proccessing.

Amazon, Microsoft and dozens of other companies offer cloud services that allow anyone with a credit card and email addy to rent pay-as-you-use bandwidth and processing power, and operate virtual machines that can be accessed from anywhere at any time.

All that stored data-everything from personal info to credit-card numbers, as well as business intellectual property-makes for a huge target. And with its easy access to massive computing power and significant gaps in security, the cloud is very hackable. For cybercriminals, the combination of conditions couldn't be more perfect.

There's a great comedy sketch about Facebook on Youtube. Just search for Facebook CIA Project. :)

The worrying thing is, I suspect there's probably some truth in it.

I've never used face ache or sites like it, and I never will. Why people would want to broadcast the minutiae of their lives to everyone and their dog, is quite frankly beyond me.

Cant stand facebook, its been the cause of so much strife (bullying etc) in my house that I ended up banning it for a while. Had to give in a little because in that crazy world of teenagers its almost a social disability if your not on it. Now, because I'm a wicked and controlling mother I do random checks to see whats going on, I have their passwords!

What I've learned from this Documentary is that Facebook will continue to get weirder and weirder. Meaning, it will eventually somehow die and finally meet it's end. What Psychologist B.J Frogg said is very True, Facebook really is weakening the strongest relationships. People are also sharing the most silliest things, Facebook is almost normalizing such stupidity.
