The high-energy tale of how two socially awkward Ivy Leaguers, trying to increase their chances with the opposite sex, ended up creating Facebook.
Eduardo Saverin and Mark Zuckerberg were Harvard undergraduates and best friends–outsiders at a school filled with polished prep-school grads and long-time legacies. They shared both academic brilliance in math and a geeky awkwardness with women.
Eduardo figured their ticket to social acceptance–and sexual success–was getting invited to join one of the university’s Final Clubs, a constellation of elite societies that had groomed generations of the most powerful men in the world and ranked on top of the inflexible hierarchy at Harvard. Mark, with less of an interest in what the campus alpha males thought of him, happened to be a computer genius of the first order.
Which he used to find a more direct route to social stardom: one lonely night, Mark hacked into the university's computer system, creating a ratable database of all the female students on campus–and subsequently crashing the university's servers and nearly getting himself kicked out of school. In that moment, in his Harvard dorm room, the framework for Facebook was born.
What followed–a real-life adventure filled with slick venture capitalists, stunning women, and six-foot-five-inch identical-twin Olympic rowers–makes for one of the most entertaining and compelling books of the year. Before long, Eduardo’s and Mark’s different ideas about Facebook created in their relationship faint cracks, which soon spiraled into out-and-out warfare. The collegiate exuberance that marked their collaboration fell prey to the adult world of lawyers and money. The great irony is that while Facebook succeeded by bringing people together, its very success tore two best friends apart.
The Accidental Billionaires is a compulsively readable story of innocence lost–and of the unusual creation of a company that has revolutionized the way hundreds of millions of people relate to one another.
Ben Mezrich, a Harvard graduate, has published ten books, including the New York Times bestseller Bringing Down the House . He is a columnist for Boston Common and a contributor for Flush magazine. Ben lives in Boston with his wife, Tonya.
这是一个关于天才、天才眼中的世界以及天才所处的文化的了解,我觉得这本处理最好的是作者叙事的角度。虽然这本书的产生有它特定的背景,比如facebook被迫出局的cofounder当时正在和马克打官司,希望从舆论上造势,但即使这样,这本书也给了我们足够多的启示。 从我个人的角度...
评分有人看书,喜欢一板一眼。在我看来,这样的人,是不太适合看传记或者历史的。 传记也好,历史也好,特别是关于已经离世的人,很难考证或者求证真伪。 时间带有对记忆的洗刷功能、美化功能。更何况传记和历史,往往要等到一个人成功之时,才会有作家会动笔去写这个人的传记,...
评分个人觉得是非常吸引我的一本书,封面设计非常漂亮,翻译也很时髦到位,书和电影一样精彩,有些在电影里我没看懂的细节在书里面都得到了解答。送了朋友一本,也会推荐给其他朋友看。它们让我现在很着迷有关facebook的很多东西了。

对创业的人也许会有启示。
评分学到的功课是,对于智商还不够intense的人来说,签股东协议的时候一定不能只盯着自己那份看~
评分和电影各有趣味
评分Not without entertainment but still a shallow book
评分值得一读,有点意思
