It’s Interesting How History Is Manufactured

The truth is I only watch WallStrip intermittently because I can’t save the file to put on the iPod to watch later — I’ve never been able to get a single podcast from iTunes, they always time out — maybe it’s a China thing? Anyway, I enjoyed this interview with Jimmy Wales, including this bit:

“Lately I’ve been on a huge Facebook kick. Mark Zuckerberg… he’s got it figured out. [He’s] very focused on the product and not abusing the customer which is very different from MySpace, which seems to be all about abusing the customer as hard as possible to monetize the site before it collapses.”

Quick link to all WallStrip videos at YouTube.

(Sorting that list by “Most Viewed” is interesting — Lindsay in a bikini I understand, but Discovery (DISCA) with 68,000+ views? What gives?)

    just fyi on FACEBOOK my partner in Ptrades, Karel Baloun, wrote an excellent book on Inside FACEBOOK, it can be found on amazon, excellent read for those intersted in biz, great insight on Zuckerberg and basically walks you thru how they did and where he thinks social networks are going, great for entrepreneurs etc——Patrick Kerr of Ptrades and Oil Gas Futures
