In the olden times, privacy was good. Today people want to share, people are more open.

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.

The point of Facebook isn't the features, it's the people.

I look at Google and think they have a strong academic culture. Elegant solutions to complex problems.

When I was in college, I remember thinking to myself, this internet thing is awesome because you can look up anything you want, you can read news, you can download music, you can watch movies, you can find information on Google, you can get reference material on Wikipedia, except the thing that is most important to humans, which is other people, was not there.

I'm trying to make the world a more open place by helping people connect and share.

Move fast, take risks, it's okay to try big things you're better off trying something and having it not work and learning from that than having not done anything at all.
