.. just saw the movie "The Social Network" and it got me searching interviews on Mark Zuckerberg on youtube. Found this from 60 minutes after the premiere of the movie; Have any of you guys seen the movie? Do you think they got Zuckerberg right? I'm a little torn concerning his personality ,, in the movie he is portrayed as a calculating genious who runs over everybody ,, in real life he comes across as simply awkward, but then again, the fact that he is where he is suggests he must be somewhat callous to have achieved what he's achieved ,, like the legal dispute with the Winklevoss twins ,, I mean, technically, they had little on him since social networks existed before facebook ,, he did everything without their help ,, but nonetheless, at some level, he wronged them since they introduced him to the idea in the first place. Nonetheless, 65 million $ in a legal settlement is perhaps just what they deserved either way, if not more .. Really interesting story I must say. What's even more interesting is its future and the collision course with google. ronnie05.wordpress.com/2010/02/15/we1/Another piece on the future ambitions of Zuckerberg outside the domain of facebook: www.businessinsider.com/facebook-to-announce-plans-take-over-the-internet-with-facebook-pages-2010-3 Not a light matter concerning the privacy issues facebook has been dealing with ,, and the fact that internet is some sort of a haven for absolute freedom of expression combined with anonymity.

I saw the film awhile back...Actually I am torn between him being a dirty calculating snake to someone who just realized he just doesn't want any riders on his bus... He did have help from his roommate and thats where it bothers me a bit that the guy did help him with writing the code and with money...
I don't know if the rest of the story is true about him planning out the part with the chicken and the rest.

The movie was pretty bad, filled with too many characterizations. Everyone seems to fit into some social norm too much and filled with way too much action and kind of speech that cannot be in anyway real
