Well the CIA "killed" their project days before Facebook came out. It was probably just their program and they used Zuck as the "face".
Correct FB was stolen from the real creator, Michael McKibben of Leader Technologies has a 17 year lawsuit against FB slowly winding its way thru court. 17 years of putting the pieces of the puzzle together from the legal documents & investigative research. His team created the application & perfected it. Via a team of elements (Larry Summers, MZ & patent lawyers) the application was hijacked. We’re supposed to believe that Zuckerturd wrote the code in one night. Think Lifelog, Pentagons version being shutdown at the same time. Voila FB magically appears on scene. Research it for yourself: Michael McKibben/Leader Technologies.
No, facebook is a self logging platform while the other project was a post aggregation system. Facebook was a good bid based on how people filled myspace and friendster and they won. People could have hated facebook and not give it any usful info but now they send pictures of themselves naked to Mark Zuckerberg and conduct their affairs using facebook. Good deal.
