Mark Zuckerberg, an internet entrepreneur, is known for being the co-founder of the popular social media website Facebook. He is also chairman, chief executive officer, and controlling shareholder of its parent company, Meta Platforms. Zuckerberg attended Harvard University, where he launched Facebook in February 2004 with his roommates. Originally launched to select college campuses, the site expanded rapidly and eventually beyond colleges, reaching one billion users by 2012. Zuckerberg took the company public in May 2012 with majority shares. In 2007, at age 23, he became the world’s youngest self-made billionaire. As of October 2022, Zuckerberg’s net worth was $49.4 billion according to the Forbe’s Real Time Billionaires making him the 23rd richest person in the world. Zuckerberg began using computers and writing software in middle school. In high school, he built a program that allowed all the computers between his house and his father’s dental office to communicate with each other.  During Zuckerberg’s high-school years, he worked to build a music player called the Synapse Media Player. The device used machine learning to learn the user’s listening habits. He had a reputation in college as a “programming prodigy”, and in his sophomore year, he wrote a program that he called Course Match, which allowed users to make class selection decisions based on the choices of other students and also to help them form study groups. A short time later, he created a different program he initially called Face Match that let students select the best-looking person from a choice of photos. Mark Zuckerberg started to contribute most of his time to Facebook because it took off and has created one of the biggest social media website/apps in the world. Approximately 3 billion people use Facebook, a number that is unbelievably high for a social media app. He is one of the most influential people in today’s world and most people focus on his work for inspiration for their own works.
