He’s a classic geek. Nervous, apprehensive, and highly uncomfortable in a situation he does not control. I thought Stahl was way too easy on him.

I got the impression he’s hiding something, most likely related to the origins of Facebook’s code.

Last thought: this pasty, apprehensive college dropout is tracking your net usage and selling that information. I, for one, do not like this idea, and will not be on Facebook.

I do find it interesting that there’s a generation of people out there who love using web applications but freak out when the creators of those applications try to monetize it.

I think news sites have a similar problem as Zuckerberg.

And if I were 23 and being interviewed on 60 Minutes, I’d be nervous too. But holy crap, he looked unbelievably nervous. And I thought he came across as shady, because he didn’t really answer a lot of the questions.

I would be nervous too if my company was worth billions of dollars and roots of my worth was based upon some stolen source code.

Yeah, I love how they were playing up how Facebook could be a threat to Google. Because I always search for things on Facebook, just like how I go to MySpace for news…

Personally, I liked the woman who said that if she’s planning a vacation in Maui, she’d ask her friends for suggestions and for some reason, she needs Facebook to do it.

Yeah. He looked nervous and he really should’ve put on a shirt.
