Zuckerberg launched Facebook from Harvard dorm room on February 4, 2004. An early inspiration of Facebook may come from Phillips Exeter Academy, a private high school where Zuckerberg graduated in 2002. It publishes a student directory itself, the book forces the students called "The Facebook". Such images directory is an essential part of social experience for most students at private schools. With this, students can enroll in a variety of things such as force, their closeness with friends, and their phone numbers.

After college, starting up just as the "Harvard of goods" until finally Zuckerberg decided to deploy to another school, register with the help of roommate Dustin Moskovitz. They first started from Stanford, Dartmouth, Columbia, New York University, Cornell, Brown, and Yale, and then at other schools that have social contacts with Harvard.

Zuckerberg moved to Palo Alto, California, with Moskovitz and a few friends. They rented a small house that serves as an office. During the summer, Zuckerberg met Peter Thiel who invested in the company. They got their first office in mid-2004. According to Zuckerberg, they plan to return to Harvard, but eventually decided to remain in California. They have rejected a bid by big companies who will buy Facebook. In an interview in 2007, Zuckerberg explained why:

It's not about money. For me and my colleague, the most important thing is that we create an open flow of information to people. The company is owned by media conglomerate is not only an interesting idea for me. He expressed again the same goals to Wired magazine in 2010: "All I care about is the mission, making an open world." Earlier, in April 2009, Zuckerberg seek advice from Netscape's former chief financial officer Peter Currie of financing strategies to Facebook.

On July 21, 2010, Zuckerberg reported that the company reached 500 million users. When asked if if could get more income from advertising as a result of phenomenal growth, he explained: I think we can ... If you look at how many pages we are taken to the portion of advertising relative to the average search query. The average for us is a little less than 10 percent of the pages, and the average for the search is about 20 percent are taken with the ad. That's the simple things we can do. But we do not like it. We make enough money. True, I mean, we keep things running, we are growing at a rate that we want.
