Friday Fun Link – Conversation with an Anonymous Facebook Employee (January 15, 2010)

Very revealing conversation
with lots of info about the behind-the-scenes workings of Facebook as
well as the site's future plans.  Obviously, it's important to keep in
mind this is an anonymous interview on the Internet.  So who knows how
true it is? 

AllofFacebook.com, a site dedicated to all things Facebook has an analysis
but won't side one way or the other, only stating that it rings for
them (as it did for me…but I freely admit how gullible I can be
sometimes.)

  1. I would say that a lot of it seems reasonable – I would fully expect there to be a couple engineering back doors, for instance.
    What got me was the way that the source's language turned from professional to street half-way through, though – I wondered if it was contrived. I also wondered about the source's gender. Of course, this could all have been done intentionally to protect said source. or to dupe us. 🙂
