This ain't Pop's version of Qwiki!

I'm sure most of you are friends with Mark.  I'm even willing to wager that Mark was your very first friend on the FB when you opened your account.  Remember now?

Mark Zuckerberg (still good to know that the Z button works on my keyboard) the CEO of Facebook was portrayed in the movie The Social Network along with the character of Edwardo Severin as foes in a lawsuit over ownership rights of the FB.  Remember?

In January of 2011 Severin, along with You Tube co-founder Jawed Karim, invested $8 million dollars in Qwiki.  An information website that is supposed to be the next wikipedia of where to eat, socialize, vacation, etc.  Check out Qwiki at; www.qwiki.com.

Read all about it at; http://articles.nydailynews.com/2011-01-20/news/27096220_1_facebook-co-founder-facebook-ceo-mark-zuckerberg-eduardo-saverin

By the way and for what its worth Severin won the suit and made off with 5% ownership stock in Facebook or in dollar terms $2.5 billion.

Goo goo g'joo,
