For me, a picture should be like sparks. It must dazzle like the beauty of a woman or a poem. It must have radiance it must be like those stones which Pyrenean shepherds use to light their pipes.

At its core, I don't view Facebook as a social network. I think it could become the driver's license of the Internet. And beyond that, it can become the pipes and the plumbing upon what most of the Internet is built. I think it's very well positioned.
