The Social Network

I can't believe that I've been here at UCLA for almost three weeks! We took a little break from our studies and watched the movie, The Social Network, which was so interesting. There were multiple instances, where the film shows the switch from old to new media. One part of the movie that caught my attention was when Mark was in his dorm room and some guy came in and asked him if he knew the "relationship status" of a girl in their class. In these next few seconds, Zuckerberg would be coming up with something so remarkable. He then responded with an idea that would help to revolutionize social media. On people's "walls" or pages, they could change the relationship status from single to in a relationship, engaged, married, it's complicated, etc. Throughout the rest of the movie, these ideas would all contribute to make Facebook such a popular site.
