Tech: Mark Zuckerberg’s “60 Minutes” appearance gets testy

  • On the plus side, at least he wasn’t sweating. Months after Kara Swisher turned Mark Zuckerberg into a puddle of goo over privacy issues, the Facebook founder was on “60 Minutes” talking privacy with Lesley Stahl, and not turning into a puddle of goo.

Tech: We knew it: Mark Zuckerberg just as awkward as the rest of us

  • You could fill a glass of water with the sweat coming off of Mark Zuckerberg’s brow in this clip, where he tries, in vain, to explain Facebook’s privacy issues. Dude’s getting grilled, and he seriously can’t take the heat. He has to take off the hoodie he never takes off. Also, how creepy is that insignia on the inside of his hoodie? In his defense, though, let’s face it – he’s 26 and he’s done more with his life than any of us can expect to do with any of ours. Let’s not knock him too much.

Tech: Steve Jobs would rather quit than let Gizmodo win

  • You know, when this whole thing with Gizmodo happened, I got advice from people who said ‘you gotta just let it slide, you shouldn’t go after a journalist just because they bought stolen property and tried to extort you.’ … I can’t do that. I’d rather quit.
  • Steve Jobs • Speaking at the Wall Street Journal’s D8 conference – very frankly in many ways. He touched on a lot of topics in the Q&A segment, noting among other things: He had no idea this e-mail thread was with a dude from ValleyWag, iPhone OS was originally designed for a tablet like the iPad, Adobe made a big stink about Flash only after the iPad’s release, and, well, this. This is the money quote from the whole thing. source
