It began at Harvard University in 2003 as Facemash, an online service for students to judge the attractiveness of their fellow students. The website was set up as a type of "hot or not" game for Harvard students. The website allowed visitors to compare two female student pictures side by side and let them decide who was more attractive. Because the main developer, Zuckerberg, broke university policy in gaining resources for the service, it was shut down after two days. FaceMash, Facebook's predecessor, opened in 2003, developed by Mark Zuckerberg; he wrote the software for the Facemash website when he was in his second year of college.

Facebook, founded in 2004, became the largest social network in the world, with more than one billion users using Facebook every day. In 2021, Facebook announced that it would change its company name to Meta. The name change reflects the company’s growing ambitions beyond social media. According to Meta, it’s the next big breakthrough in technology. It’s a marketing strategy. Facebook’s CEO Mark Zuckerberg believes the metaverse is the future of the internet and of his trillion-dollar company.
