Mark Zuckerberg on Oprah

By Jessica Madison on March 12th, 2009

Mark Zuckerberg, founder of the all-mighty Facebook, will be on Oprah this Friday. It should be an interesting show as he opens up about himself, his values and of course his billion dollar empire. This will be the first time the 24 year-old billionaire speaks openly to the American public about his success and the future of Facebook. He’s done a few other interviews for the Today Show and 60 Minutes, but Oprah’s Oprah!

Beating out all competitors, Facebook is the newest giant taking over social media. The website continues to grow with thousands and thousands of users signing up each day. If you’re not on Facebook, I guarantee at least 10 of your friends, family or co-workers are. It’s the latest way to stay in touch and be cool at the same time.

What started out as a network for college students a few years back, grew into a billion dollar business. Even Microsoft got some action (1.6%, not much, but enought). It’ll be interesting to see Oprah finally interviewing someone who makes more than her and is only half her age. Who knows, she might even start streaming her show on Facebook!
