Facebook

TIME: Why do you describe Facebook as a “social utility” rather than a “social network?”

Zuckerberg: I think there’s confusion around what the point of social networks is. A lot of different companies characterized as social networks have different goals - some serve the function of business networking, some are media portals.

*** What we’re trying to do is just make it really efficient for people to communicate, get information and share information ***.

We always try to emphasize the utility component.

It pays to be dumb enough to not know that you can’t do something. We give everything our best shot. Rita Maupin, Calhoun County Library, Blountstown, FL
