Facebook Launched
While at Harvard University February 4, 2004, at the age of 19 - took the concept of the annual student directory of headshots at Exeter and did the same for Harvard, but then sent them via the Internet to fellow Ivy League schools; within 3 months, 45 schools and over 100,000 people were using Facebook - roommate Dustin Moskovitz assisted in launching Facebook

Where did Facebook get its name???

Referring to the annual student directory at Exeter "The front cover says "The Photo Address Book," but we all called it "The Facebook" all the time because "The Photo Address Book" was such a mouthful.

Thus, Facebook became a trademark word.
