Facebook Gets A Face Lift! Facebook is building a new facility to hold their servers in Prineville, Oregon. They picked Prineville as it stays fairly cool year round, which is imperative for the servers. Ken Patchett had said, “ Our servers can easily handle 81 degrees inside the data center!” It is going to be a 147,000 sq. ft. building on 124 acres with the first two phases due to be finished by the end of 2010. Facebook bought the property in January, just six months ago for 3.2 million. If things go as planned, after the first two phases are finished, they are hoping to almost double the 147,000 sq. ft. building. By thinking ahead and purchasing the 124 acres, there will be more than enough room to do just that. Watch video to see this Facebook new home.
