I thought that he would have been moved to become Chief Evangelist so the venture capitalists could hire someone experienced to run the business - kind of what like Google did with Eric Schmidt.

What they should have done, was what Google did, hire an experienced CEO, an not run it yourself when you don't even have any experience. Had they gotten a proper CEO they would not be in this situation. FaceBook can be written off as a great idea, but poor execution.

The media hammered Clemens for not answering questions but "hiding" behind a one way medium where he denied steroid use. He needed to engage interactively with the public which he quasi did on 60 minutes and then followed up with a news conference. Destination television still carries huge weight.

I just find it interesting that people like Clemens and Zuckberg are using a show such as "60 Minutes" to get the word out. I guess it still carries some clout after all these years. That said, Clemens was smart when he posted a video on YouTube. Aswath:
