Mark Zuckerberg: Some Personal Writings by a Billionaire

By Steve Poland   •   November 30, 2007

If you’re looking for some good TGIF celeb-type readings…

Great find here of various writings by Mark Zuckerberg — first there’s an email he wrote (during his Harvard days) with a background on the whole ConnectU debacle. Then there are various personal “diary” type writings — that show how he was just a college student that drank on Tuesday nights and wanted to put up some photos of barn animals vs some people photos, and see which people rated to be hotter.

Just fun/interesting to see what he was writing back before Facebook was worth (on paper) $15 billion.
