The author certainly makes valid points. However, reading this now, 9 years after the book was published, it is clear that he could not foresee the critical extent and the dangerous reach of the Facebook Effect, and how it would become a double-edged sword that causes as much harm as it does good.

All around awesome. Very cool back story and details about the people, process and passion, that are making it happen. Real world, world changing stuff, that has happened and will continue to happen in our time.

Like watching an episode of Silicon Valley (paying graffiti artist for a mural, the Thiel/Gregory character, being rude to VC on purpose).
As a product manager, some decision process and design events are nice learning from the inside. After all Facebook is a very widely used product.
Also worth noting is the short history of all social networks, putting things in perspective.
Warning: the author seems very very close to the Facebook inner circle. Everything has to be complemented with other books/sources.
On the audio version Kirkpatrick is even interviewed by Facebook marketing manager and Zuckerberg sister on how wonderful his book is and how Facebook is truly fantastic.
A bit too much :)
Still learned a lot, well written and did not want to stop, so 4 stars :)

Very interesting story about how Facebook came to be. As an entrepreneur I always like the first half of such books much more, as it tells the founding and early growth story. It was entertaining and I learned a lot about Facebook and their culture.
