The movie about facebook is being launched today and it raises more questions than answers about Mark and his $ Billion dollar creation.

It would be interesting to see what happens next but i don't think it will impact in anyway on the brand facebook. What am i onto...Mark created facebook from a Harvard dorm true (so the world is led to believe) however i rem facebook in my campus days in the US, what started as an IVY network created by a "bunch" of guys grew so much then 'other' colleges were invited and soon the world, how Mark came to own it,i may never know.some guys from MIT tell me mark was always around MIT talking bout facebook but this was not his creation. Its widely known he "stole" the idea from his pals and am told he dint have the depth to create such a sensation..hearsay maybe but i'd say Mark was a naughty boy..lol

The greatest danger in times of turbulence is not the turbulence; it is to act with yesterday's logic.

The victorious will write the history. So many dead and buried bodies in the Facebook story. And this is just one of them.

Man, I have spread your "The girl effect - The clock is ticking.mp4" to all my friends and they are liking it.

About Mark, he is not different from Bill Gates who stole Steve Jobs creation and ran with it - Watch "Pirates of Silicon Valley" and you will understand what I mean.

Nokia also raided Ericsson's talented employees to remain afloat. Find out what Nokia was initially making and you will never want to ever buy another Nokia - Nokia by the way are on their death bed courtesy of iphone, Nexus or google android application and blackberry's storm 2.

Technology Thieves eventually die a painful death as it was not their brains that created the marvels of mother nature.

In 1898, Eduard Polón founded Finnish Rubber Works, manufacturer of galoshes - Gumboots - and other rubber products, which later became Nokia's rubber business.[26] At the beginning of the 20th century, Finnish Rubber Works established its factories near the town of Nokia and began using Nokia as its product brand

Bill Gates will eventually die a desolate man. Cloud Computing does not require you to buy Antivirus Solutions, save you on storage devices, makes your office work available anywhere in the world and makes sharing very easy. It is encouraging ppl to work at home when the weather is human unfriendly and theft of your data is minimal.

In the next five years, Windows will be history. So, don't spend a fortune going to College to learn Microsoft Office Suit.

See, the real guy who should have gotten credit for windows software is Steve Jobs. Apple today is making more money par year in America than Microsoft.

Mark is just a normal human being,Early 2007 he got sued for stealing the idea , but last year the issue was sorted,

True, the idea was not his, but who cares, the guy is also generous, @ 26 only and with all those Billions and the revolution FB has caused, Its a big achievement.

What MaRK HAs THAT most people lack is risk taking and believing in one self

Cant wait to see the movie,

On monday, he featured on Ophrah Show, he showed a small inside of his rented house and his girlfriend(Who is chinese)

If you want to know,how they two met , just let me know, i will post it here

Five years eh LOL! Microsoft naysayers have been on this five year death prediction since Windows 95.

Kwanza when the first open source operating system kernel (Linux) was put online free for download and further development everyone was predicting the death of Microsoft especially because they had just bundled windows 95 with a free internet browser, effectively killing netscape...remember them?


Cloud computing does present a slight threat to some Microsoft products, remember Microsoft already does have some cloud computing products as well and an excellent virtualization platform that dwarfs the vmware alternative.

Remember they came from behind to claim the crown with gaming consoles...

Simply put Microsoft haiendi mahali in the next 100 years.

They simply have the best global software delivery, support and training system in the world.

90% plus software market share cannot be wiped out in five years mzee wangu ...copy cats or not.
