This is where I get to know a lot of friends, sharing information, and others. Andi Twitter This is the place where I vent. Why? because of the timeline on twitter very guarded their privacy and follow the time.




OK, the fist I'll introduce Mark Zuckerberg ( @finkd )


Zuckerberg was born in White Plains, New York to Karen, a psychiatrist, and Edward, a dentist. Mark, along with his three sisters, was raised in Dobbs Ferry, New York. His parents are Jewish, but he considers himself an atheist.
Zuckerberg started programming when he was in middle school. Early on, he enjoyed developing computer programs, especially communication tools and games. He studied at Ardsley High School where he excelled in the classics, before transferring in his junior year to Phillips Exeter Academy where he immersed himself in Latin.
He also designed and programmed a computer application system to help the workers in his father's office communicate; he built a version of the game Risk, and under the company name Intelligent Media Group, he built a music player named the Synapse Media Player that used artificial intelligence to learn the user's listening habits, which was posted to Slashdot and received a rating of 3 out of 5 from PC Magazine. Microsoft and AOL tried to purchase Synapse and recruit Zuckerberg, but he instead went to Harvard College in September 2002 where he joined Alpha Epsilon Pi, a Jewish fraternity, and studied computer science. In his sophomore year at Harvard, he also met his future fiancee, Priscilla Chan, a Chinese-American from the Boston suburbs. In college, he was known for reciting lines from epic poems such as The Iliad.
Zuckerberg "clearly thinks of himself as a hacker" and says hacking isn't about "breaking and entering," it's about "being unafraid to break things in order to make them better." Facebook conducts "hackathons" every six to eight weeks in which participants have one night to conceive of and complete a project. The company provides music, food, and beer at the hackathons, and many Facebook staff members, including Zuckerberg, regularly attend. "The idea is that you can build something really good in a night,” Zuckerberg told Wired. "And that’s part of the personality of Facebook now ... It’s definitely very core to my personality."
On Zuckerberg's Facebook page, he lists his personal interests as "openness, making things that help people connect and share what's important to them, revolutions, information flow, minimalism."


Vanity Fair magazine named Zuckerberg number 1 on its 2010 list of the Top 100 "most influential people of the Information Age". Zuckerberg ranked number 23 on the Vanity Fair 100 list in 2009. In 2010, Zuckerberg was chosen as number 16 in New Statesman's annual survey of the world's 50 most influential figures.




and the second I'll introduce Jack Dorsey ( @jack )
Dorsey grew up in St. Louis, Missouri, and by age 14, he had become interested in dispatch routing. Some of the open source software he created in the area of dispatch logistics is still used by taxicab companies. He went to high school at Bishop DuBourg High School, and attended Missouri University of Science and Technology before subsequently transferring to New York University, where he first conceived the idea for Twitter. While working on dispatching as a programmer he later moved to California.
In Oakland in 2000, Dorsey started his company to dispatch couriers, taxis, and emergency services from the Web. His other projects and ideas at this time included networks of medical devices and a "frictionless service market". In July 2000, building on dispatching and inspired in part by LiveJournal and possibly by AOL Instant Messenger, he had the idea for a Web-based realtime status/short message communication service.
When he first saw implementations of instant messaging, Dorsey had wondered if the software's user status output could be shared among friends easily. He approached Odeo, who at the time happened to be interested in text messaging. Dorsey and Biz Stone decided that SMS text suited the status message idea, and built a prototype of Twitter in about two weeks. The idea attracted many users at Odeo and investment from Evan Williams who had left Google after selling them Pyra Labs and Blogger.
