Is FightEbola.com the next big acquisition by Facebook?

It's true: Mark Zuckerberg's middle name is Elliot.

Mark Zuckerberg is ready to help fight Ebola.

Facebook founder, Mark Zuckerberg, announced today the launch of a large scale initiative to help fight the Ebola virus in Africa.

“I want to make sure Facebook does its part to help fight Ebola. So today, we’re announcing three things:

  • We’re providing internet connectivity in Guinea, Liberia and Sierra Leone to help medical and aid workers track cases and coordinate their response.
  • We’re sharing information on Facebook, in partnership with UNICEF, to help people in the affected and nearby countries prevent, detect and treat Ebola.
  • We’ll soon be highlighting the work of some of the non-profits leading the fight on the ground, and giving everyone on Facebook the ability to donate directly.

Stopping Ebola is an important global challenge, and together we can make a difference. This video outlines our efforts, or to learn more visit facebook.com/fightebola”

The domain name FightEbola.com was registered in August of this year, according to DomainTools.

While Facebook has become an integral part of the Internet and leads the way among all other social media, it is also known to acquire domain names for use with internal projects, such as FB.com and Internet.org.

Did the unknown registrant of FightEbola.com score a bit ticket with this domain? That, remains to be seen. In the meantime, visit Facebook.com/fightebola.
