马克·扎克伯格是美国社交网站Facebook的创办人，被人们冠以“盖茨第二”的美誉。哈佛大学计算机和心理学专业辍学生，是2008年全球最年轻的单身巨富，也是历来全球最年轻的自行创业亿万富豪。据悉，尽管扎克伯格拥有亿万身家，但他至今仍和女友生活在一套租来的住房里；为了能在2010年年底带普莉希拉·陈到中国度假，扎克伯格每天早晨都跟家庭教师学说汉语。
Mark Elliot Zuckerberg, the founder of Facebook, was born in 1984 in New York. Zuckerberg began using computers when he was in middle school. His father taught him the BASIC Programming in the 1990s and later hired David Newman, an private computer program teacher, to develop his skills. Newman called him a “genius”. The teacher even said that it was tough to stay ahead of him. When he was in high school, he also took an extra class in the subject at Mercy College near his home. Zuckerberg enjoyed developing computer programs, especially communicating tools and games. In one such program, he built a software program “ZuckNet” to help his father stay in touch with his dentists. According to writer Jose Antonio Vargas, “Mark created the computer games that kids played.”
During Zuckerberg’s high school years, he built a music player called Synapse Media Player and was widely used by many high school students. By then, Zuckerberg had won a good fame and Microsoft tried to employed him, but he chose to enter Harvard University in September 2002. By the time he began classes at Harvard, he had already been regarded as a genius in programming. During his second year in Harvard, he wrote a program called CourseMatch to help students with their selection in groups. A short time later, he created a different program called Facemash that let students make choice of the best looking face of some photos and there would be a ranking. The racing lasts about a weekend but was shut down on Monday Morning. For it was so popular that it was out of Harvard’s control. Then students were prevent from accessing the website. Zuckerberg’s roommates Hasit explaned that Zuckerberg built the site just for fun. Hasit remembered, “Mark decided that if the university won’t do something about it, he would. And he would build a site that would be even better than what the university had.” Zuckerberg launched Facebook from his Harvard dormitory room on February 4, 2004. And on July 21, 2010, Zuckerberg reported that the number of the website members reached to 500 million.
Vanity Fair magazine named Zuckerberg number 1 on its 2010 list of the “most influential people of the Information Age”. Zuckerberg ranked number 23 in 2009. In 2010, Zuckerberg was chosen as number 16 in New Statesman’s annual survey of the world’s 50 most influential figures.
马克·艾略特·扎克伯格是Facebook的创始人，他于1984年出生于纽约市。扎克伯格开始使用电脑是中学时期。他的父亲在上世纪90年代教他BASIC Programming之后，聘请软件研发者David Newman当他的家教。Newman曾说扎克伯格是一个神童，而且还说想保持走在扎克伯格前面是一件困难的事。扎克伯格高中时，已经在家里附近的Mercy College上额外的程序课。扎克伯格很喜欢程式设计，特别是沟通工具与游戏类。他还开发过名为ZuckNet的软件程式，让父亲可以在家里和牙医诊所之间讯息交流。根据作家Jose Antonio Vargas所描述的：“扎克伯格创造孩子们的电脑游戏。”
在扎克伯格高中时代，他也创作了名为Synapse Media Player的音乐程式，并赢得了广大学生的好评，微软当时就已经想要招揽并训练扎克伯格，不过扎克伯格仍选择于2002年9月进入哈佛大学。在哈佛时代开始时，扎克伯格就被称誉为是“程式神人”。二年级时他开发出名为CourseMatch的程式，很好地帮助了学生们选择他们的课程团体。一段时间后，他又开发了另外一个不一样的程式，名为Facemash，让学生可以在一堆照片中选择最佳外貌的人。并且会生成一个排行榜。这个的竞赛进行了一个周末之久，但是到周一早晨，被校方关闭，因为哈佛的服务器被灌爆，因此不准学生进入这个网站。Hasit解释道扎克伯格创建这个这个网站仅仅出于好玩。Hasit回忆，“马克决定如果学校不干的话，他要干，他将会建一个比学校更棒的站。”扎克伯格因此在他的哈佛宿舍内，于2004年2月24日发起了Facebook。在2010年7月21日，扎克伯格宣布他的网站会员已经达5亿人。
“浮华世界”(Vanity Fair) 杂志在2010年把扎克伯格列为“资讯时代中最有影响力”的第一人。扎克伯格在2009年时排行还是第23。2010年，扎克伯格也被New Statesman的世界50大影响力年度调查选为16名。
