Facebook has become the most adorable social media tool and has been used by million of users. Today, i am going to discuss Creator Facebook Mark Zukerberg Success Story who belives, there is no shortcut to Success, born in White Plain New York, US on May 14, 1984. He is Jewish by ethnicity and living in California, Palo Alto.

Nobody thought that during early childhood that this small kid soon going to become World most successful entrepreneur and Youngest Billionaire in the world. It happened and we all have become witnessed of his success.

Basically he started out as an American computer programmer and then journey take him to achieve the dream of success by creating the social networking site, Facebook which was co-founded as a private company in 2004 by Zuckerberg and classmates Dustin Moskovitz, Eduardo Saverin, and Chris Hughes while they were students at Harvard University.

During studies at Harverd, Mark developed a program called CourseMatch, which allowed users to make class selection decisions based on the choices of other students and also to help them form study groups. After a short time, he created another program called Facemash that let students select the best looking person from a choice of photos.


According to Zuckerberg's roommate at the time, Arie Hasit, "he built the site for fun." Hasit explains: 
We had books called Face Books, which included the names and pictures of everyone who lived in the student dorms. At first, he built a site and placed two pictures, or pictures of two males and two females. Visitors to the site had to choose who was "hotter" and according to the votes there would be a ranking.

Mark launched Facebook from his Harvard dormitory room on February 4, 2004 and after the significant success of Facebook, he wasn't able to continue his education and finally marked as "drop out".

Mark became the world's youngest billionaire in 2008, aged 25, and just last year - six years after he started the company - his personal wealth was estimated to be $13.5billion.
