Mark Zuckerberg: “I Committed Every Possible Mistake During My Early Days of Facebook”

At the Townhall Q&A
session at IIT-Delhi in India,
Facebook addressed many
questions asked by the students. Stressing
on the importance of controversial
Internet.org, he said that connecting India
is very important and fulfilling the aim to
connect the world isn't possible if we
ignore India.
One of the questions that intrigued Mark
Zuckerberg was related to his early days,
when he started Facebook. A girl from
IIT-Delhi asked Mark to share his life
incidents and decisions he took during the
early days at Facebook that he regrets
now.
Instead of talking about one single
incident or mistake, Mark said that when
we build things and take new paths, we
commit mistakes. Similarly, during his
Facebook journey, he has committed lost
of mistakes.
"Mistakes are part of professional life. I
have probably made every possible
mistake possible. You learn with trial and
error. You shouldn't be afraid to make
mistakes," he said.
He added, "More than avoiding mistakes,
it's important that if you do good things, it
should inspire you to do many great
things."
He said that he was inspired by his own
hard work and the idea to make
something that will connect the world.
Mark further added that starting a startup
isn't an easy task and you should do it if
you are passionate about something and
changing the world. He advised the
students to avoid thinking about some big
company when they are taking the
decision to start a startup.

Zuckerberg inspiring? Tell us in the

Floyd Mayweather Baby Mama Sues for $20 Mil ... He's a Despicable Liar

Floyd Mayweather could lose tens of millions of dollars from his big payday if his baby mama gets her way ... because she's just filed a lawsuit claiming he ruined her with lies to save his own ass. Josie Harris, who has 3 kids with Floyd, claims he lied through his teeth in an interview with Katie Couric just 2 weeks before the big fight ... when he claimed Josie was in a drug-fueled rage and he had to "restrain" her during their infamous 2010 domestic violence incident. Point of fact ... Floyd was convicted of domestic violence and spent two months in jail. Josie recounts her terror in the lawsuit, explaining how she and Floyd had broken up ... but he flew into a jealous rage that night, broke into her home and viciously attacked her while she was sleeping on her couch ... and her kids saw part of the beating. Harris says she is now labeled a drug addict thanks to Mayweather's lies -- and was embarrassed and humiliated on a global scale.   Her lawyer, Dan Friedl...

Google Authenticator, a formidable layer of protection to your account.

​Google Authenticator is a free security app that can protect your accounts against password theft. It's easy to set up and can be used in a process called two-factor authentication (2FA) offered on popular social media services like Gmail, Facebook, Twitter, Instagram, etc.  The app ( iOS / Android ) generates a random code used to verify your identity when you're logging into various services. The code can technically be sent to your phone via text message every time— but the Google Authenticator app provides an extra level of security.  SMS-based 2FA has a  known security flaw , and any devoted hacker can attempt to  socially engineer  an attack against your phone company. The Google Authenticator app eliminates the possibility of an SMS-based attack  using algorithms  to generate the codes on your phone. Here's how to set it up: 1. Download Google Authenticator from either the Apple App Store or the Android Google Play store. It's free. 2. Nex...

Are You Treating Your Kids Like Your Career?

And, we see this all the time. Hey,listen I've heard evidence of this phenomenon at the hairdresser, nail salon, at high school softball games, or at the grocery store. Mothers move in closer to each other and start to talk to one other very seriously and very competitively about their kids' achievements, successes, activities but certainly not about their disappointments, feelings, or emotional concerns. Nope, those topics are reserved for the night when those parents are alone with both the darkness of the night and their concerns. Now these are kids they are talking about, not careers. I'll tell you though that it sounds a whole lot like they are talking about jobs and job advancement. And, these kids who are their current careers, in my opinion, are at risk to become highly anxious and stressed as they struggle not to let their parents down. Don't kid yourself parents — your kids are desperately afraid of failing you. Want to figure out if your child has beco...
