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群媒體平臺最初只是一個點評女生「漂亮與否」的初級網站。由哈佛大學(Harvard University)學生馬克•祖克柏(Mark Zuckerberg)成立的Facemash網站,向用戶隨機展示兩張女生照片,讓人們評價誰更有吸引力,照片都是他從哈佛校園網中搜集來的。該網站最終被封,但祖克柏現在又回到了他在宿舍創業時的老本行。Facebook開始推出一項「約會」服務。
