Zuckerberg hacked into protected areas of Harvard's computer network and copied private dormitory ID images.

In attempt to create the unofficial online face book at the website thefacebook.com, out of frustration that the university's official online face book project was taking too long. He was charge with expulsion for breaching of Havard law but the changes were dropped letter.

11. Membership was initially restricted to students of Harvard College. And within the first month the launching, more than half the undergraduates at Harvard were registered on the service.

12. Six days after the site launched, some of Zuckerberg's seniors in Harvard College Cameron Winklevoss, Tyler Winklevoss, and Divya Narendra accused Zuckerberg of intentionally misleading them into believing that he would help them build a social network called HarvardConnection.com .

15. Zuckerberg started writing codes at 12. His first program was Zucknet.

His father used the program in his dental office, so that the receptionist could inform him of a new patient without yelling across the room. The family also used Zucknet to communicate within the house. Together with his friends, he also created computer games just for fun. "I had a bunch of friends who were artists," he said. "They'd come over, draw stuff, and I'd build a game out of it."
