The more I read about Mark Zuckerberg, the less respect and admiration I have for him... lots of bad vibes around him.


I don't know how anyone did in the first place. You have to look past the big shiny numbers.


Can anyone explain this comment to me? What are the "bad vibes"?


He seems to be taking stuff from people and never giving anything in return. Now there is another guy who claims that Zuckerberg 'borrowed' facebook idea/implementation from him and he has a series of emails to prove it (It was in NYTimes recently).


Yeah I'm not a Zuckerberg fan, but for some reason I keep reading about him.


that's easy, he stole it


I think that FB is more than ConnectU could or would ever have been. If you read the article, it is lauding recent decisions which are outside of what ANY other social networking applications have attempted: to wit, disclosing news on others and opening up the platform.

Do you really think that ConnectU would have done any of that? Or would it be what it is today: a pale Friendster clone?


I don't understand your comment.
