TROY, N.Y. - Two of the biggest names in Facebook history will be in the Capital Region tonight to share their story. Cameron and Tyler Winklevoss, commonly known as the Winklevoss twins, will speak to students at RPI.

Students will hear their accounts of the origins of Facebook when the two teamed up with classmate Mark Zuckerberg in the 2000s to create the popular social network. They later sued Zuckerberg claiming that he stole their idea.

Tonight's event will be held at the Darrin Communications Center at 7:30 p.m. Tickets are required.
