Mark Zuckerberg Quotes

The thing that we are trying to do at facebook, is just help people connect and communicate more efficiently.

The thing I love about Myspace is it's a safe place where I can talk to fans every day.

Founded in August 2003, MySpace would go on to be the most-visited social networking site in the world from 2005 until early 2008.

The people you're friends with on Facebook or the people you follow on Twitter are trusted sources of information.

I'm definitely not on Twitter. I do have a Facebook page and Facebook friends. It's a lot of fun, especially if you don't just start friending people you don't know.

In one sense, Facebook is very focused as an address book, as efficient communication. It's like e-mail or like IM or something like that. And we do those things, too, but we do so much more. We try to focus on the whole world and all the things that people are interested in, rather than just people to people, or one to one communication.

I have to say, I worry about Twitter. Not that it will survive - they don't need my blessing for that - but that it will stay the kind of open, community-enhancing-and-enabling site that made it flourish at the outset.

I had 60,000 friends on MySpace.

I'm in touch with the social networks and stuff.

From the day Facebook launched in 2004, the profile was the most critical page on the site.

The reason the social-networking phenomenon is something that I invested in early and massively - I led the Series A financing for Friendster; I founded a company called Socialnet in 1997; I founded LinkedIn; and I was part of the first round of financing in Facebook - it sounds trivial, but people matter.

I often feel like Facebook is a giant friend portfolio, and sometimes it can be a much more socially appropriate way of contacting a person as compared with texting or telephone. And never mind the fact that it's integrated into the iPhone. Makes me crazy in a super good way.

Tribalism isn't a bad thing. If you're a Facebook user, or Twitter user or Foursquare user or LinkedIn user, those are all tribes... and they may even have sub-tribes. It's not pejorative, it's declarative.

My goal was never to make Facebook cool. I am not a cool person.

My view of social media is that it is a set of tools, not a religion.

MySpace is like a bar, Facebook is like the BBQ you have in your back yard with friends and family, play games, share pictures. Facebook is much better for sharing than MySpace. LinkedIn is the office, how you stay up to date, solve professional problems.

Facebook was not originally created to be a company. It was built to accomplish a social mission - to make the world more open and connected.

I'm on the Facebook board now. Little did they know that I thought Facebook was really stupid when I first heard about it back in 2005.

In this age of omniconnectedness, words like 'network,' 'community' and even 'friends' no longer mean what they used to. Networks don't exist on LinkedIn. A community is not something that happens on a blog or on Twitter. And a friend is more than someone whose online status you check.

I love Facebook. I could brush my teeth with Facebook.

As for my friends, I do have friends that aren't in the entertainment world at all but do interact on social media. I think that's an innate human thing now, to connect via those channels.

The Internet has introduced me to some of my closest friends.
