And the twist is if Ceglia truly did have this contract with Zuckerberg, it leaves the ConnectU guys in a particular interesting situation.

No it doesn't. The issue was never "who thought of Facebook first". All of this was when Myspace was at it's peak. Everyone had the idea to do a Myspace competitor.

The issue is Zuckerberg taking people's money and making false commitments by accepting a job and lying to the ConnectU guys that he was still working on it to delay them as much as he could.

Really? MySpace was at its peak at the end of 2003/beginning of 2004? And everyone at that time was trying to build a 'MySpace competitor?'
