My 5 year old has this habit of bringing it to the attention of everybody whenever he hears or speaks the words that rhyme, something like 'more' & 'snore' and he excitedly says "they rhyme", hence the title of this blog.
Anyways back to the blog, well Mark Zuckerberg turned 27 today and he has got all the good reasons to enjoy this day. With around 640 million customers what else do you want? I bet there is one more good reason for Zuckerberg to enjoy and it seems he is extremely lucky to have this one person by his side, the present COO of Facebook, Sheryl Sandberg. There has been an excellent article on Sandberg and her contributions towards Facebook and other projects which have earned her a lot of respect. She is having an impeccable record starting off with her journey at Harvard and then Larry Summers became her mentor and slowly she moved to work with the treasury department and then Google and then finally landing up as a COO of Facebook.
Read this article (on Bloomberg Businessweek) which is very informative and I certainly liked it and recommend reading it. I really feel elated whenever I hear women making it to the top in the corporate world and getting the recognition for the same. This is a good sign not only for the corporate world but also for the society we live in. In the end of the article there has been an speculation that with the present qualities that Sandberg possess, there are chances that she could ran for the president of the US (post Facebook I assume). Well Good Luck to Sandberg with that. Right now what I can say is she is doing one hell of a job at Facebook. Facebook is growing and roaring like an uncontrollable monster and it does not require a geek to run the show what it requires is a methodological manager with the aptitude and proven track record to tame it.
