Google + and its genius plan with Invites to take on Facebook.

For the last couple of days it seems that my Facebook news feed has been exploding with people offering invites to Google +. Often not even referring to Google+ but rather simply saying “couple invites left.” The excitement this seeming exclusivity creates is incredible, as more and more Google + invitations flutter into my inbox. I start to wonder why make it an invite service other than to entice people who would other wise not find out about the service as quickly if it entirely open.
Now Google is known for creating invite only services, however in the past those invites were not given out to all users in seemingly unlimited amounts.
I feel like the marketing team that came up with the idea of giving unlimited invites out to a generation of people who live on Facebook and twitter status updates deserves a standing ovation, for the ability to use their competitions services in order to boost exposure for Googles latest venture. They’ve clearly already captured much of their competitions user base, lets just see if they can hang on to it. / emptv

Mark Zuckerberg: Kids under 13 should be welcome to have us leak their personal information too.

In an interview with the venture capitalist John Doerr at the NewSchools Venture Fund’s Summit in Burlingame,Calif., Zuckerberg said he would “fight” to roll back the part of the Children’s Online Privacy Protection Act, or COPPA, which prevents companies from collecting information on users under the age of 13.

Google boss Eric Schmidt and Facebook founder Mark Zuckerberg have warned governments not to over-regulate traffic on the internet.

Google boss Eric Schmidt and Facebook founder Mark Zuckerberg have warned governments not to over-regulate traffic on the internet.

Zuckerberg said that governments cannot cherry pick which aspects of the web to control and which not to.

The two heavyweights are leading a group of high-profile online pioneers to the G8 summit in France.

The group will deliver recommendations that have been created at the first e-G8 gathering in Paris this week.

The e-G8 has the blessing of President Sarkozy, but world leaders are not bound by its findings.

Zuckerberg and Schmidt’s position reflect growing concerns among internet industry professionals that government’s are getting too involved in how the web operates.

Mark Zuckerberg: “The only meat I’m eating is from animals I’ve killed myself,”

Facebook founder Mark Zuckerberg is taking on a new challenge.

“The only meat I’m eating is from animals I’ve killed myself,” he said.

The 27-year-old billionaire said since starting the odd challenge, he has killed goats, pigs and chickens.

“I’m eating a lot healthier foods. And I’ve learned a lot about sustainable farming and raising of animals,” he said, according to Fortune magazine’s website.

“It’s easy to take the food we eat for granted when we can eat good things every day.”

On May 4, Zuckerberg posted a note on his Facebook page — where else — saying, “I just killed a pig and a goat.”
