Mark Zuckerberg on CBS

There is something I wanted to talk about yesterday when hear about it but I didn't have time to spend on writing so I take some time today to do so.
On Saturday, the channel CBS diffused an interview of the creator of Facebook, Mark Zuckerberg, and a short presentation of the social network during the 60 min'. The anchorwoman Lesley Stahl made a pretty interesting overview of different functionalities and aim of Facebook. The presentation was of course not exhaustive especially concerning the question of the applications, subject that are interesting use more particularly. The interest of this video was more to introduce Facebook for those that do not hear about it yet.
However it is very interesting to see the interview of this incredibly young company manager and especially the maturity that he proves with his ability to manage the huge success of his company. As a young student in computer science, I have to admit that I am totally fan of this guy and that my dream would be to create a product that meet a comparable success!
The essential announcement: "I think what I can announce is that it is highly unlikely that we will go public in 2008," Zuckerberg says. This stage will come in 2 or 3 years thinks Zuckerberg. We will see... a lot of things have to be done first!
