Are Social Networks Gonna Blow?

April 21st, 2011

That’s the title of a piece by Ashlee Vance in this week’s Bloomberg Businessweek, and it’s well worth the read.

My favorite part of the article doesn’t have to do with the social media-fueled investment bubble we’re in, though. It’s this quote from Jeff Hammerbacher, one of Facebook’s first 100 employees:

“The best minds of my generation are thinking about how to make people click ads. That sucks.”

Tru dat.
