Photos from Randi Zuckerberg's wedding
Darlings, everyone who's anyone is flying to a Caribbean island to get married. Larry Page and Lucy Southworth did the deed on some spit of sand called Necker Island. Randi Zuckerberg? The Facebooker took over something like the entire island of Jamaica to get hitched to venture-capital associate Brent Tworetzky. Or just Runaway Bay — our sources can't get that part entirely straight. But we did get a batch of photos from the wedding. A destination wedding in Jamaica? Expensive. Making your younger brother, who's ostensibly your boss and worth $4 billion on paper, dress in a turquoise vest and an ill-fitting tuxedo shirt? Priceless. The photos: More »

Meet Randi Jayne Zuckerberg Tworetzky, Facebook's rep in Tinseltown, who scored No. 45 on The Hollywood Reporter's list of digital power players. The newlywed, Mark's older sister, was a surprising choice — an infuriating one, to some of our tipsters — but she got the props for brokering content deals with ABC and Comcast, no small feat. Still, we're less interested in Randi Tworetzky's business dealings than in Randi Jayne's musical stylings. (If Hollywood had any sense, they would, to.) Which makes this lip dub of her singing "Going to the Chapel" utterly frustrating. Randi, we don't want to watch you mouth the words. Girl, sing out! (Video by Julia Allison) More »

Z is for Zuckerberg, the richest of all
Money isn't everything. Mark Zuckerberg may have the highest net worth among his generation of entrepreneurs, but the Facebook CEO only gets 21 out of 294 pages in Sarah Lacy's new Web 2.0 book, Once You're Lucky, Twice You're Good. That's 16 more than his sister, nerd chanteuse Randi Jayne Zuckerberg, which tells us Lacy has her priorities all wrong. The Zuckerbergs' index page: More »

Facebook has a prom and Julia Allison will be attending
Congratulations, Facebookers! Notorious New York nobody and Silicon Alley wantrepreneur Julia Allison plans to grace your "Facebook Prom" with her presence. She twitters:OMG. I just got invited to the Facebook Prom!!!! No, not by @randijayne, although I'm sure she's going to be jealous of my superhot date ;)Obviously, Allison is after the prom queen crown, enough that she's willing to elbow Facebook marketer Randi Zuckerberg out of the way if need be, despite having just attended her Vegas bachelorette party. Send us photos of Facebook's other contenders.

Facebook NSFW! Julia Allison and other pics from Randi Zuckerberg's Vegas bachelorette
Can you imagine a photo op that Julia Allison wouldn't attend? What happens in Vegas goes instantly to Valleywag, Allison knows, and so she flew to Las Vegas to attend Randi Zuckerberg's bachelorette party. Zuckerberg, whose wig-and-sunglasses disguise did not deter the Web's paparazzi, is a budding Web video star, Facebook's marketing director, and, unlike younger brother Mark, an actual Harvard graduate. In what's surely a first, Allison, the tech-obsessed TV personality, managed not to hog the camera; she's in only one of the shots. Facebook's Meagan Marks also appears sporting what looks like a freshly acquired head wound. A slip and fall on the dance floor? Our informants are investigating. In the meantime, enjoy the evidence of Zuckerberg's bacchanal. A warning: If plastic sex toys offend your coworkers, one photo may be unsuitable for office computers. More »

Details of Randi Zuckerberg's bachelorette party in Vegas
We hear that friends of Randi Zuckerberg, better known as nerd chanteuse Randi Jayne, are surprising the Facebook marketer with a bachelorette party in Las Vegas this weekend. The place: the Hard Rock Hotel, where they've secured two suites. (Zuckerberg is set to wed Brent Tworetzky, an associate at Shasta Ventures, in May.) The bacchanalia's expected to last all weekend, including a dinner at Tao and a night out at Rain. Who's going? More »

Randi Zuckerberg takes Manhattan (and our hearts)
Randi Jayne Zuckerberg, the nerd chanteuse and sister of Facebook CEO Mark, visited the fair island of Manhattan last week and frankly, we'll never be the same. Zuckerberg — sorry boys, she's planning to wed in May — came to town with her mother. Notorious notoriety-possessor Julia Allison roped Zuckerberg into a meal — and one of her lip-sync videos. We haven't seen the video yet, but we're hoping wantrepreneur Allison was smart enough to hand over creative control to the vastly more talented Zuckerberg. She's excellent at show tunes. Stills from the shoot are below. More »

New social networks fighting against ebb tide of user interest
Social network fatigue is nothing new, at least to The 250, and VCs are finally catching on — the Starbucks social network might be the watershed moment when everyone stepped back from updating their umpteenth profile, put down the double-tall soy mocha and said to themselves, "You know, maybe we've reached the point of diminishing returns."

Randi Zuckerberg to wed in two months
Last seen bravely trying to block Julia Allison's path to a geek — her brother, Facebook CEO Mark Zuckerberg — Randi Zuckerberg will marry her college sweetheart, Brent Tworetzky, in May. Lucky guy. As Web chanteuse "Randi Jayne," she long ago sang her way into our heart with her music video, Valleyfreude, embedded below. Update: Randi just texted my boss, "Sweet! You just saved me money on wedding invites! ;-)" More »
