Dustin Moskovitz co-founded the social networking website Facebook along with Mark Zuckerberg and Chris Hughes.
Three roommates—Zuckerberg, Chris Hughes, and Moskovitz—along with Eduardo Saverin founded Facebook in their Harvard University dorm room in February 2004, originally as thefacebook.com as an online directory of all Harvard's students and the website was built to help residential students identify members of other residences. In June 2004, Zuckerberg and Moskovitz took a year off from Harvard and moved Facebook's base of operations to Palo Alto, California, joining Sean Parker, founder of Napster, in his apartment and hiring eight other employees in the process. While at Facebook, Moskovitz was a Vice President, led the technical staff, and worked on the company's internal tools and strategy.
