Look what they were saying about Facebook in 2005

The site was so new that a WSJ headline had Facebook in quotes. From the 2005 story:

The hottest Web site on college campuses is Facebook, a group of free online communities where students can gossip about friends and interests, share photos, and flirt. It's a more in-depth, online version of the paper "facebooks," filled with photos and brief biographies, which many colleges still hand out to incoming freshmen. It has become so ubiquitous that "facebooking" someone -- as in checking out their photo and personal profile online -- is standard campus lingo.

But some students post much more detailed, personal information on Facebook, including cellphone numbers, physical addresses and even racy photos. That has led some universities to question whether it poses various privacy and security risks -- including student harassment. Any backlash could give Facebook Inc. a black eye just as it is ramping up its operations, raising venture capital and hiring more staff.
