Reflection
I felt bad for Mark Zukerberg because his friend
thought he used him. Eduardo Saverin could not
be angry at Mark Zuckerberg and Mark
Zuckerberg should not have diluted the ownership
of Eduardo Saverin. The world was better now
because of my subject because I wanted people to
know about Mark Zukerberg’s life and how he
successfully created Facebook. If I were Mark
Zukerberg, I would not dilute the ownership of
Eduardo Saverin. I would make people interested
in Facebook. I think the story was really about the
founder of Facebook. My friends didn’t know about
this story but I hope they read my report and know
Mark Zuckerberg. Facebook becoming successful
would be the part to apply to my real life.

Conclusion
The topic was about the founder of facebook who
created Zunet, Synapse, Course Match,
Facemash and Facebook, which became
successful. Mark Zukerberg is a generous man
who wants people to socialise on Facebook.
