I'm always surprised I've never heard anything about the similar room at Facebook's old California ave. hq. There was a secret door in the basement to a small "situation room" type place.

Do you know if anybody has pictures? That sounds interesting.

I remember seeing a photo of it once when they were about to launch a new product. I can't seem to find it but I think Robert Scoble took it so try his Flickr account.

Scoble calls it the War Room but I presume it's the same place. More here: http://www.flickr.com/photos/scobleizer/tags/facebook/

As I remember it, the love lounge and the lucky 7 are different rooms. When Animation moved to another part of the building and Andrew got a new office, he built lucky 7 and the love lounge stayed intact.

I sat in the office next to the love lounge for over a year. Great way to see all the celebrities visiting the studio.

That's a conference room at the St. Regis in San Francisco.
