That's one way to grease the wheels.

And then this whole fiasco would have been tagged under "LET'S GET THIS PARTY STARTED" to borrow from another rag.

]]> <![CDATA[Why Mark Zuckerberg isn't saying anything]]> Here's the problem with geeks.

Nobody bitches and moans more than geeks about whether someone's on stage or online performance is good. I've received it myself when I appear on online shows. Used to upset me like it probably upset Sarah Lacy, but now I know that complaining is in geeks' DNA. They HAVE to do it.

I actually got so frustrated going to so many bad panel sessions that I wrote an article entitled "More Schmooze, Less Snooze: How to Deliver 'The Most Talked About' Conference Session." It's got advice for moderators, panelists, and even attendees.

So I complained, but hopefully I'm being constructive. :)

I don't know about him being at the "right" place at the "right" time because he isn't gaining anything other than attention. If anyone believes that the fb "platform" is anything special or is non-reproducible by a couple of Indian kids in a weekend, then they have issues and should deserve to lost money on any investments.

You have a valid point.

Imagine getting "time-capsuled" as an awkward early-20s guy because you have a business to run?

Volunteering? I have my own laundry to do. More like dodging most in need of second mamas. If the Valleywag reader happens to be an unsocialized geek who can't talk the talk, I'll pass.

I have it from firsthand experience that there's a market for "Geek Socialization" ... start with basics before these guys get have a PR team sicked on them. They're a certain breed to be handled. They CAN be wildly smart but duuuhhuuurrrrr in such basic ways.

]]> <![CDATA[Why Mark Zuckerberg isn't saying anything]]> Zuckerberg didn't say anything because he doesn't have anything to say. This guy got lucky with a "right place, right time" idea and some clever engineers. He's been out of his league ever since. Facebook has jumped the shark.

]]> <![CDATA[Why Mark Zuckerberg isn't saying anything]]> Have any of you been on a date with a geek? DEER IN HEADLIGHTS. This is the typical dynamic just witnessed on stage.

There were some good questions, just not good answers. A reporter NEEDS to have something to work with.

I think some geek socialization classes are in order. Charisma might be a side effect.

]]> <![CDATA[Why Mark Zuckerberg isn't saying anything]]> @CaliforniaCajun I, like, totally, like, agree. She sounds like she's flirting with him more than she does professional. If she's going to flirt and still keep on track, she needs to watch the afternoon talk show hosts more (or Natali Del Conte)

]]> <![CDATA[Why Mark Zuckerberg isn't saying anything]]> @bgj: Has any pure social site gone public? Livejournal, MySpace and all of the others that come to mind became part of a larger conglomerate, but I don't think that any flavor-of-the-year social site could hold up in the market because they'd just become trading stocks, playthings for the daytraders and not real investments suitable for anyone's 401K.

]]> <![CDATA[Why Mark Zuckerberg isn't saying anything]]> Thanks for the fair take on this interview. I agree that Lacy asked some good/tough questions but they were dodged. I wasn't aware there was a silent twitter mutiny underway and was myself becoming annoyed with the interview because Zuckerburg was being repetitive and side-stepping good questions. I was really surprised by and disappointed in the way the audience reacted.
