The poster is laid out in a yearbook format with involvement in clubs and activities listed underneath a profile shot of a student with the head of a YouTube, Reddit, or even WordPress’ logo, all, of course, concluded with a favorite quote of these social networking students’ choosing.

Oh, and can you guess who the class president was? No, not Stumbleupon, but Linkedin. He’s got all the connections, and he’s clearly not ashamed of it considering his quote of choice: “It’s not what you know but who you know that makes the difference.” That hand-shaking bastard! He’ll be senator one day.
Poor Digg started up the How to Win Friends (Back) and Influence People (Again) Club and YouTube founded the Talking Cats Video Club. Lastly, we cannot forgot Mr. Posh, aka Google. We’re not quite sure why daddy put the founder of the Yacht Club, Billionaires Club, and Future Investors of America Club in this public school, but he’s certainly the guy you go to to get a loan.
