"As a side note, a little known fact is that when I was at Friendster, I found a small company out of Harvard that we came very close to acquiring, a startup no one had heard of that time, a company named The Facebook."


I remember hearing somewhere that the amount Friendster offered Facebook then was something like $10 million.

I'm sure a lot of people told Zuckerberg he was crazy not to take the money and run.


interesting Q&A
