Published by Rodney Rumford June 20th, 2007 in Facebook, Facebook Applications, Facebook Interviews, Facebook News, Facebook Review, Facebook Software, Facebook Trends, Facebook Video, Facebook f8 platform, facebook developer, facebook widgets.We blogged last week about facebook CEO mark Zuckerberg dropping in to the NYC facebook developers meetup. Now you can see this drop in video and watch mark talk about facebook, the facebook platform and listen to him field questions from the audience members.
We think this video is great info for both both facebook developers and facebook users to watch. You can tell the group of facebook developers at this meeting are very enthusiastic and hungry for knowledge to create facebook applications. You will have a clearer understanding of what facebook is doing and where they are going. I just love the way he interacts and fields questions, props to the casual & smart CEO.
Worthy of note are the following 10 key points he touches on about facebook applications and the platform during this Q & A conversation:
1. Users over 25 years old are their fastest growing segment. 10% of canada is on facebook
2. They believe they will have 50 million users by the end of the year, and they expect to hit 100 million users sometime in 2008
3. Enterprise vs. Consumer apps - future uncertain
4. Facebook platform is a work in progress
5. Acceptance is far beyond their expectations
6. Third party applications effect user experience
7. Revenue sharing coming for developers
8. Best applications can grow
9. They continue to develop applications in house. Facebook will continue innovation in core components such as mini-feed, as well as other services
10. The reason for success of facebook and developer applications is the social graph that they have.
11. Bonus point: Leave a comment if you know the answer to this question: Who calls him on his cell during this video?
