Dane Cook, actor and comedian, started out in comedy as a teenager in Boston. History has it that in 2002 he took his savings at the time, a total of $25,000, and put it into a website, a concept that was mocked by fellow comedians. After his site was launched his takeover of social media networks began. Rapidly in 2006 he was pushing half a million friends on myspace. Currently he has over 2.5 million friends at Myspac and over 2 and quarter million following as fans on Facebook. For an idea that was mocked by other comedians and actors in 2002 it has surely achieved its goal of spreading the word and increasing awareness of the comedian.
