American universities.Facebook was founded
on February 4, 2004 by Mark Zuckerberg with
his college roommates and fellow Harvard
University students Eduardo Saverin, Andrew
McCollum, Dustin Moskovitz and Chris

website's membership to Harvard students,
but later expanded it to colleges in the Boston
area, the Ivy League, and Stanford University.
