Akward Interview with Facebook's Mark Zuckerberg at SXSW




Got an hour? I like the viddler video interface allowing for the embedding of peanut gallery comments. It also draws your attention to the noteworthy portions of the interview. Plenty has been said already about this interview at the SXSW conference, so I'll keep it brief.

This highlights the importance of connecting with the audience and understanding their expectations. Mark maintained a professional posture while being dealt with in, what
I thought, was a demeaning tone. I think she was trying to "play", but it totally didn't fly. The audience wanted to be engaged earlier, and punished Sarah Lacy severely for leaving them out, cutting Mark off, and talking to him like a teenager. She had a couple moments with fair questions, but her style was a deal breaker. Even so, seeing her blasted by the crowd wasn't pleasant.

not fun. Cnet has more
