Its website was launched on February 4, 2004, by Mark Zuckerberg with his Harvard College roomies and associate students Eduardo Saverin, Andrew McCollum, Dustin Moskovitz and Chris Hughes.The builder had initially limited the website’s membership to Harvard students, but later splay it to colleges in the Boston area, the Ivy League, and Stanford University. It slowly added support for students at a variety of other universities and later to high-school students. Since 2006, anyone who is at least 13 years old is permit to become a registered user of the website, though the age requirement may be higher depending on applicable local laws.
