Saw Facebook founder on 60 Minutes tonight

Leslie Stahl and Mark Zuckerberg. Talk about 2 people talking across a gulf of experience. My favorite moment was...

Stahl: People are saying you're the next Larry and Sergey. (proud to be referring offhandedly to Google's founders)
Zuckerberg: (long blank look) Is that a question?

The real grilling was reseved for "Beacon", 'course, and up to then he seemed to be your basic unaffected 23 year old, t-shirt wearing multibillionaire. However, MZ seemed not to understand why people might care if Facebook broadcasts to all their "friends" that they just bought a vibrator or a carburetor pipe from Amazon.
That's really a little hard to believe. So smart, worth 3 billion, looks innocent, but doesn't get it?
Oh, and that nice candle holder Brenda bought for your birthday... she got it Tuesday at RemainersForLess.com.
