Facebook PHP Source Code from August 2007

In August 2007 a hacker found a way to expose the PHP source code on facebook.com. He retrieved two files and then emailed them to me, and I wrote about the issue:

http://techcrunch.com/2007/08/11/facebook-source-code-leaked/

It became a big deal:

http://www.techmeme.com/070812/p1#a070812p1

The two files are index.php (the homepage) and search.php (the search page)

I don't know what ended up happening to the guy who stole the code.

I found these files today while searching for another Facebook related file. Worth preserving as part of Internet history.

just being a part of internet history here :)
And yeah man, the code isnt too bad altho i agree with some commentors, making the code work seems more imp when youre just building up a startup , mainatainable code can be organised later when success is starting to meet and the team scales up.

They do, Facebook especially has spent tons and tons and tons of time optimizing and rewriting underperforming code.

This is a good piece of Internet history, and has some of the only leaked chunks of the original 2003 code that Mark Zuckerberg originally wrote in his dorm room at Harvard. There's another "original" Facebook code on GitHub (although, not on Gist) published by "megaloglobal" that purports to be the "original 2003 version", whilst that emulates 2008-era Facebook, the one that succeeded this version of the platform here and created the code used until like 2012.
