Facebook in the LA Times: is Zuckerberg the next Sergey Brin, or the next Steve Jobs?

It’s official from the LA Times: Zuckerberg has a “trademark” outfit:

On a recent afternoon, the Harvard dropout sat in a Facebook conference room, wearing his trademark uniform of hooded sweat shirt, jeans and Adidas flip-flops. His boyish face, framed by curly brown hair, lit up when he talked about Facebook’s potential to transform how people connect.

Hmmm, only Steve Jobs gets a trademark outfit! And yes, Jason, they are apparently drunk:

The deal may have positioned Facebook’s 23-year-old co-founder and chief executive, Mark Zuckerberg, to one day supplant Google co-founder Sergey Brin as the technology industry’s youngest self-made billionaire.

The article on the whole reads as a bit of a puff-piece, but for those people who aren’t familiar with Facebook as a business, how it got started, its size, and what the company culture may be like, there’s a lot of information in the article.
