My Opinion of Facebook.com:

Facebook.com began existance as HarvardConnection, written by Divya Narendra, Cameron Winklevoss, and Tyler Winklevoss. They later changed the name to ConnectU, and sought the assistance of their Top Gun-loving classmate, Mark Zuckerberg to complete the code for a social networking site that would initially be launched at Harvard University, before being expanded to the remaining Ivy League universities and subsequently additional schools.

Facebook.com paid the original authors of HarvardConnection an undisclosed sum in February 2008 since, apparently, Zuckerberg was supposed to actually provide them with his changes instead of launching a competing site with their code. Court papers to this effect were filed as early as four years prior to the settlement.
