From the sale document:

This is a piece of Internet history – history of a website that perhaps is second only to Google in Global influence!

This website was prominently referenced in the first scene of the recently released move “The Social Network”. Traffic has syrocketed since to over 1000 hits a day past 2 days. but is approx. 600/mo on a normalized basis.

Apparently Zuckerberg let the domain expire, and it was bought by Rahul Jahn who is now selling it for a minimum bid of $8,000. The Whois page looks legit and reveals Zuckerberg’s Harvard email, address and phone number (which I called to verify, belongs to his Dad’s dentistry office).

As the article on Facemash is currently the top viewed on its site, it’s safe to assume that Harvard Crimson, like Facemash, is currently receiving much The Social Network-related traffic.
