A man in Egypt has
named his newborn daughter
"Facebook" in honor of the role
the social media network played
in bringing about a revolution,
according to a new report.
Gamal Ibrahim, a 20-something,
gave his daughter the name "to
express his joy at the
achievements made by the
January 25 youth," according to
a report in Al-Ahram, one of
Egypt's most popular
newspapers.
Many young people used
Facebook and other social media
networks to organize the
protests, which began January
25 and ultimately led to the
ouster of President Hosni
Mubarak after 30 years in
power.
Wael Ghonim, a Google executive
who organized a Facebook page
on his own time, became a
central figure of the revolution.
