The world’s most successful social-media platform began as a rudimentary “hot or not” site. Facemash, created by Harvard student Mark Zuckerberg, presented viewers with random pairs of student photographs he’d scraped from the university’s intranet, and asked them to rate who was the more attractive. The site was shut down but Zuckerberg is now returning to his dorm-room roots. Earlier this year, he announced that Facebook would launch a dating service.
目前世界上最成功的社交媒体平台最初只是一个点评女生“漂亮与否”的初级网站。由哈佛大学(Harvard University)学生马克•扎克伯格(Mark Zuckerberg)创建的Facemash网站,向用户随机展示两张女生照片,让人们评价谁更有吸引力,照片都是他从哈佛校园网中搜集来的。该网站最终被封,但扎克伯格现在又回到了他在宿舍创业时的老本行。Facebook开始推出一项“约会”服务。
