Newsweek just completely lost my respect when a video 2/3rds the way down the page started automatically playing.

They lost most of my respect when my parents got a subscription during my high school years, and I read the articles.

Diagram summarizing the Zuckerberg talk referred to in the article: http://www.killnine.com/comics/25.php

"No matter the intent, though, the speech seemed to fit the Valley's growing cult of youth, if not a movement, based on 'Don't Fund Anyone Under 30.'"

Under?

Probably an error caused by Mr. Levy's extreme ancientness... ;-)

Funny thing is, none of them (I think) are billionaires, in the sense of having at least one billion dollars in liquid financial assets.

You don't think, if Mark Zuckerberg tried to sell his share, he could get more than a billion?

On paper or not, he's worth more than a billion dollars.
