Not true. Facebook was already up and running. I was a freshman in high school when my sister made me make an account in 05.

Mid-2005 was the first time you could do that. That's the year it went global.

You must be special then.

From wikipedia...

quote:

On October 1, 2005, Facebook expanded to twenty-one universities in the United Kingdom and others around the world. Facebook launched a high school version in September 2005, which Zuckerberg called the next logical step.[42] At that time, high school networks required an invitation to join.[43] Facebook later expanded membership eligibility to employees of several companies, including Apple Inc. and Microsoft.[44] On December 11, 2005, universities in Australia and New Zealand were added to the Facebook network, bringing its size to 2,000+ colleges and 25,000 + high schools throughout the United States, Canada, Mexico, the United Kingdom, Australia, New Zealand, and Ireland. Facebook was then opened on September 26, 2006 to everyone aged 13 and older with a valid e-mail address.[6][7]




ETa... in other words, before Oct 2005, facebook access was extremely limited.

Backstreet Boys? Is that some gang in SW Atlanta?
What's Facebook? Can I check it out at the library?

Apparently you dickholes are illiterate. 2006 was the open date for anyone over 13. In 2004, at least at UGA, you could sign up with a UGA email

OK, I'll edit the OP to say "Facebook wouldn't be available to the general public for another year"

Fixed, realized the inside joke wouldn't carry over from the SECR and just take away from the message.

correct. I had it in fall of 04 with a college email.

Worst thing for the actual product (although obviously, not taking into account popularity and global reach) was letting high schoolers and old people on facebook. I wonder what it'd be like today if you still had to have a college email to join.
