Jared Seth Morgenstern (born March 8, 1981) is an American designer and entrepreneur who graduated from Harvard University with a Master's and Undergraduate Degree magna cum laude in Computer Science. Shortly after graduating from Harvard, Morgenstern began working on a social networking website called Metails.com[1] with former classmate, Eddie Lim. Lim and Morgenstern plus a team of two more employees sold Metails.com to Buy.com in 2004.[2] In January 2006, Morgenstern was recruited[3] to join Facebook as its third designer. At Facebook Jared would eventually lead the product teams working on Virtual Gifts,[4][5] Usernames,[6][7] Games,[8] Social Ads,[9] and the Like button among other projects.
