    "Facebook has yet to figure out how to make money off its huge audience." They sure figured that out.

    Time is flying, this video looks like something from the 90's
  • Gotta say knowing he hacked into the Harvard database as a kid to get student information really explains his continuous issues with Facebook and privacy
  • @Noner1234
    7:05 “Hillary Clinton is hugely unpopular” well some things never change lmao
  • @MS-37
    “We were warned he could be awkward.” 💀

    Mark: "Is that a question?" The Social Network portrayal was accurate.

    I worked at a company as a cloud engineer as my first job out of college. The smartest engineer in that company was 20 years old, the VP of the company would constantly ask him for help, along with everybody else, including me. That being said, when 60 minutes started roasting Zuckerburg for being a "toddler CEO" in a condescending way, I thought back to that first job. Why does age matter, if a person makes it happen, it happened.
  • "addictive waste of time" is the most accurate description of FB I've heard.
  • @cortster12
    Her condensending attitude makes Mark actually seem sympathetic. Which is quite the feat.
  • @MarchOnRome
    "you're just staring at me..." "Is that a question?"
  • @cytrex1o1
    2:41 his walking skills was still on pre alpha back then
  • @ameliaglitz
    I thought the social network exaggerated his personality, but after watching this I can confirm that they did not. Lmao.
  • I remember when people first told me about facebook and they all talked about it as this "tool" to reconnect with people you haven't spoken to in years. They talked about how amazing it is to find people from their high school days on it. No one talks about facebook in that context anymore. It has metastasized into something else.
  • @AlgoCurioso4
    At least we can all agree that he hasn’t change a bit.
  • @XxDuffnotfuddxX
    Love looking back to his old software. He’s updated so much since this interview
  • @porridgegod42
    the 'Is that a question' is so like the scene in the social network
