My views

I don't know too much about this film, other than what i've read as i've not watched it yet. A part of me thinks, damn a film about Facebook that's not going to be any good but then another part of me wants to watch it and see how the MASSIVE Internet site Facebook began and how it evolved. All from this one guy, Mark. In a way i find the situation is resemblance to myself, one day i'm hoping mcompute will be known world wide.
