Mark Zuckerberg

Mark Zuckerberg was born in 1984 ,May 14. He is an American computer programmer,Internet entrepreneuer and also a Philanthropist.He co-founded Facebook and his net worth is estimated to be 46$ billion.

Mark was constantly constructing software. In 1990s his father taught him Atari Basic Programming and then he hired Newman to tutor him.Then Mark developed the "ZuckNet",which was constructed to connect the computer in his house with the one that his father used at his office.In his sophomore year he invented CourseMatch and the following semester FaceMash,which gave the opppurtunity to students to select the best looking person for a date.Its popularity led to a crash of the Harvard computer system. In January 2004 Mark launched the initial form of Facebook, thefacebook.com .

On 4 February 2004 Mark lauched facebook from his Harvard dormitory room with the help of his roommates,Eduardo Saverin,Andrew McCollum and Dustin Moskovitz.Facebook once was only for Harvard students but after some time they spread it out of Harvard.Mark has been involved in lots of legal disputes.6 years after the launch Cameron Winklevoss,Tyler Winklevoss and Divya Marendra claimed that Mark misled them to believe that he would help them with their idea of HarvardConnection.com,but he used it to construct a competing program.

The Zuckerberg couple donated their wealth in December 2012 to an institution working on "advancing human potential and promoting equality".3 years later, on December 1 2015 they announced the birth of their daughter Max and they donated 99% of their Facebook shares, then valued at $45 billion, to the Chan Zuckerberg Initiative, their new charitable foundation with focuses on health and education.
