A few days ago I wrote about facebook founder Mark Zuckerberg, who has been accused of stealing the idea behind facebook back in 2004.
US District Judge Douglas Woodlock told attorneys for ConnectU founders they needed to substantiate claims that Mark Zuckerberg misappropriated trade secrets while they were students at Harvard, according to the Associated Press. The judge repeatedly asked for specific details of a contract the plaintiffs say they entered into with Zuckerberg. Woodlock went on to say: "You haven't told me anything other than there's something out there." He gave the plaintiffs until August 8 to detail their allegations.(TheRegister)

I really don't think this one will come back. As I said before, facebook is based on an idea every school, organization or sportsclub has.
