Researchers from the University of Glasgow look back at the early days of social media to discuss how things have changed.

With a panel led by Yvonne Skipper from the School of Psychology, you’ll hear a discussion about the contemporary algorithm and the need to seek for truth in an age of online misinformation.

The Social Network | 2011 | 120 minutes

As Harvard student Mark Zuckerberg creates the social networking site that would become known as Facebook, he is sued by the twins who claimed he stole their idea and by the co-founder who was later squeezed out of the business.
