Never let it be said that Silicon Valley companies aren't built to last.
Sheryl Sandberg, Facebook's COO, says they're in this for "20 to 30 years". In 30 years, Sandberg will be 68. Check back then.
In 30 years, even Zuckerberg will be getting short of breath.
Meanwhile, wags are wondering if Jerry Yang's recent re-appointment as Chief Yahoo makes him Yahoo for Life.
And everyone knows the three leaders of Google have made a pact among themselves to still be at the helm of the company in 20 (or was it 30?) years.
Promising never to retire: it's the ultimate Silicon Valley status symbol. I guess Steve Jobs must have started it.Labels: facebook
