Friday Fun: Social Network Movies & Spoofs

So apparently social media is so hip that people are making movies about it. For example coming in October “The Social Network” movie comes out. It’s about the start of Facebook. Where Harvard undergrad Mark Zuckerberg sits down at his computer and heatedly begins working on a new idea which soon becomes the global social network Facebook and a revolution in communication. The film focuses on the tumultuous early years of Facebook, which was founded in 2004. A mere six years and 500 million friends later, Mark Zuckerberg is the youngest billionaire in history… The film’s tag-line is “You don’t get to 500 million friends without making a few enemies.”

I guess you know something is popular when there are spoofs of it. I found a few funny fake social network movies too. Enjoy the videos below, starting with real “The Social Network” trailer.

A fake Twitter movie!

Aren’t you glad you don’t use MySpace anymore.

Memories of Guatemala

When I was in college I went on a mission trip down to Guatemala. It was one of the most amazing experiences of my life. We worked at the San Lucas Mission helping their reforestation project, build houses & sort coffee beans.

It was so great to know that I was using my spring break helping people. Since then, I sponsor a child down there named Maynor Thomas. (He’s a rockstar!) Anyway, I ran across this video online from CFCA, the organization that I sponsor my kid through. So I thought I’d share it with you, to encourage you to find something you are passionate about. Yes it is somewhat of a shameless plug, but it’s nice video too. Also if you ever want to have the best coffee in your life, you can buy it directly from the Guatemalan San Lucas Mission Here (click to buy Juan Ana coffee, you won’t regret it). Enjoy!
