Zuckerberg Wrote All 2,178 Words Of Facebooks S-1 Founder Letter On His Phone

Screen Shot 2012-09-11 at 2.49.11 PMIn a riveting conversation today at TechCrunch Disrupt, Zuckerberg underscored and underscored and underscored again the importance of mobile for Facebook. He gave a telling and sort of chilling anecdote, for those of us who know how difficult it is to monetize mobile: "Want to know something sort of funny?" he told TechCrunch founder Michael Arrington, "You know the Founder's Letter in the S-1, well I wrote that on my phone."Zuck's feat is super impressive, considering the letter is about the size of your average MG Siegler post -- 2,178 words according to my Word document word count, if you don't include Zuckerberg's signature. The key IPO document outlines Facebook's mission to "make the world a better place" versus "make money." The irony of him sending this from his iPhone (or any phone) isn't lost on us, as mobile continues to be a challenge for the company, and a concern for investors.
