010: Project LifeLog: Is the Zuckster in Bed with DARPA?

Hello out there, all you crazy Conspiracy Players! We're living in an age where people elect to socialize with their friends and family via the digital world more and more all the time. Whether you’re a fan of the film The Social Network, are yourself an avid user of social media, or you flat-out hate the sh*t altogether, you just might want to give this episode a listen. The year was 2003, and a brilliant Harvard student is said to have created [thefacebook] in his dorm room with some help from a few friends and subsequent shady investors. It would only be a matter of months before it would take off to become one of the biggest platforms on the planet. It divides families, is said to have swayed elections, and seems to have a mind of its own when it comes to mining your data. But is there more to this story? Or is Facebook really of grass roots origin like the legend goes? Take a look and decide for yourself, Players!
