Topic Discussion Article: 'Social Network' epic and intimate at once (文章)

Questions for Discussion:

Session 1

1. Do you have a Facebook account? If you do, please tell us your opinion on the advantages and the disadvantages about Facebook. As for those disadvantages, what do you think the inventor of Facebook should do to improve it?

2. If you will also be able to create an ingenious social networking system, what kind of special function do you want to put into your invention to make it into a different facebook?

3. The movie Social Network primarily talks about how Facebook was invented by Mark Zuckerberg, who right now is the youngest billionaire in the world. In your opinion, what are the necessary characteristics for a successful self-made entrepreneur?

Session 2

4. If you have already watched this movie, please share with us your opinion about this movie and what is good or bad about it.

5. Mark Zuckerberg said that the reason Facebook has become a hit around the world is that people enjoy the feeling of keeping a close eye on what is going on in the life of people they are familiar with. Do you think that is also the reason you use Facebook? If not, what is your reason to use it?

6. In the movie, Mark Zuckerberg allegedly tried to set up his best friend and steal the original idea of Facebook from his senior teammates, so as to allegedly monopolize the monetary rewards. If you were him, would you also abandon your friends if you know you have something that could make you a lot of money?
