Book excerpt: Casa Facebook Mark Zuckerberg, His Friends and the Mystical House that Launched Them Judy Fusco with Kevin Paterson In Casa Facebook, the author weaves together fascinating real-life stories of the founders of Facebook, the Silicon Valley kingpins, and a mystical house that became headquarters to the social networking startup that changed the world. This compelling narrative provides readers with an insightful view into the lives and community that launched Facebook and the dynamics that can transform wild dreams into reality. "Casa Facebook is a captivating story of Judy Fusco's experience with American values seen in the context of her Asian heritage," says Anita Wonder, author and close observer of the drama that played out at the house. "One can't read this book without feeling there is a deeper meaning to the extraordinary home where an American institution took shape." According to Judy Fusco, author of Casa Facebook, "In recent years I've had the opportunity of closely watching a transformational idea take shape around my dining room table, as a team of young entrepreneurs took a dream and unveiled it to the world. This social revolution has made a positive difference in the lives of millions-800 million members to be exact-and in the events of nations." "It seems," she says, "as if destiny brought these social revolutionaries to my house for a brief season and a great purpose. Perhaps, too, the mystique surrounding the house played a significant role in launching the global invasion of social networking and in propelling the Facebook founders to world renown. By taking a look through a window of time-a window I and many others have called Casa Facebook-we can listen and learn from the carriers of this grand idea, and in their lives we can find inspiration that can shape our own destinies." You can access blogs and 8 narrative videos about Casa Facebook which provide a visual look inside the many compelling stories surrounding this social networking phenomenon and the startup team - Mark Zuckerberg and his friends.

Download or read book Facebook written by Steven Levy and published by Penguin. This book was released on 2020-02-25 with total page 592 pages. Available in PDF, EPUB and Kindle. Book excerpt: One of the Best Technology Books of 2020—Financial Times “Levy’s all-access Facebook reflects the reputational swan dive of its subject. . . . The result is evenhanded and devastating.”—San Francisco Chronicle “[Levy’s] evenhanded conclusions are still damning.”—Reason “[He] doesn’t shy from asking the tough questions.”—The Washington Post “Reminds you the HBO show Silicon Valley did not have to reach far for its satire.”—NPR.org The definitive history, packed with untold stories, of one of America’s most controversial and powerful companies: Facebook As a college sophomore, Mark Zuckerberg created a simple website to serve as a campus social network. Today, Facebook is nearly unrecognizable from its first, modest iteration. In light of recent controversies surrounding election-influencing “fake news” accounts, the handling of its users’ personal data, and growing discontent with the actions of its founder and CEO—who has enormous power over what the world sees and says—never has a company been more central to the national conversation. Millions of words have been written about Facebook, but no one has told the complete story, documenting its ascendancy and missteps. There is no denying the power and omnipresence of Facebook in American daily life, or the imperative of this book to document the unchecked power and shocking techniques of the company, from growing at all costs to outmaneuvering its biggest rivals to acquire WhatsApp and Instagram, to developing a platform so addictive even some of its own are now beginning to realize its dangers. Based on hundreds of interviews from inside and outside Facebook, Levy’s sweeping narrative of incredible entrepreneurial success and failure digs deep into the whole story of the company that has changed the world and reaped the consequences.

Now, she’s passionate about her work, but that’s the only passion in her life. “Never love something that can’t love you back,” is advice her father-in-law gives her, but Hattie doesn’t follow it and falls head-over-heels for a money pit of a house. She’s determined to make it work, but disaster after disaster occurs, and Hattie’s dream might cost Kavanaugh & Son their livelihood. Hattie needs money, and fast. When a slick Hollywood producer shows up in her hometown of Savannah, Georgia, she gets a once-in-a-lifetime opportunity: star in a beach house renovation reality show called The Homewreckers, cast against a male lead who may be a love interest, or may be the ultimate antagonist. Soon, there’s more at stake than bad pipes and dry rot: during the demolition, evidence comes to light that points to the mysterious disappearance of a young wife and mother years before. With a burned out detective investigating the case, an arsonist on the loose, two men playing with her emotions, and layers upon layers of vintage wallpaper causing havoc, it's a question of who will flip, who will flop, and if Hattie will ever get her happily-ever-after.
