With a release date already scheduled, The Social Network is quickly gaining some high profile buzz. With an acclaimed writer (Aaron Sorkin) and director David Fincher on board has landed the script for the Social Network at the top of 2009’s The Black List – a compilation of the most-liked unproduced scripts of the year and chose by Hollywood insiders.

Entertainment Weekly describes the film:

The Social Network

By Aaron Sorkin

What it’s about: Chronicles Mark Zuckerberg’s complicated journey towards creating Facebook. Sorkin depicts both the founders motivations for starting the largest social network in the world and the human casualties that came with his profound success.

What it’s like: The fascinating biographical elements of Shattered Glass meets the courtroom drama of Kramer vs. Kramer, without the tears. Sorkin cuts between Zuckerberg’s heated depositions with his former Harvard colleagues who  claimed he stole Facebook from them and the chronological retelling of the company’s trip to becoming a billion-dollar enterprise.

Status: In production for Sony Pictures. Jesse Eisenberg plays Zuckerberg while Justin Timberlake portrays Sean Parker, one of the founders of Napster and Zuckerberg’s idol. David Fincher is directing.

Perhaps this movie won’t suck after all!

One of the things I’m horrible at is remembering birthdays. One of the best things about Facebook for me was the birthday notifications of friends and family. After all, who doesn’t like getting a “Happy Birthday” note on their wall!

As part of the numerous changes Facebook has been pushing live another important annual celebration will be included in the mix: the anniversary. Facebookers can now go to their relationship status and add the specific day, month and year in which they became a couple.

Facebook Relationship Status

One less date for me to try to keep track of! Now I just need to get my parents on Facebook!
