Zuckerberg's Facebook fan page [HACKED]



Mark Zuckerberg’s Facebook fan page seems to have been hacked, with the hacker posting a message calling on the company to transform into a “social business”.

The message, seemingly posted on Facebook from Mark Zuckerberg’s account, was quickly removed (together with the fan page), but not quickly enough to go by unnoticed, receiving over 1800 likes and hundreds of comments in the process.

The message read: “Let the hacking begin: If facebook needs money, instead of going to the banks, why doesn’t Facebook let its users invest in Facebook in a social way? Why not transform Facebook into a ‘social business’ the way Nobel Prize winner Muhammad Yunus described it? [LINK] What do you think? #hackercup2011″

Facebook made no statement about the incident, but if Zuckerberg’s fan page was indeed hacked, it’s a big deal. If the Facebook CEO (more accurately, the PR team who’s handling the page for him) can’t keep his Facebook account safe from intruders, who can?

We’ve reached out to Facebook about the incident and will update the post when we hear back.

What should Larry Page focus on now that he is the CEO of Google?


1. Make Android a real usability leader, not just a marketshare leader. I've been using Android a lot lately, and it simply isn't as nice as iPhone or, even, Windows Phone 7, in usability. Heck, even Palm/HP is nicer to use, although they suck for sticking their great OS in such a crappy piece of hardware with a small screen.

2. Get onto the playing field in social. I already have more followers on Quora than I have on Google Buzz. That's pathetic.

3. Fix search relevancy. Many people have shown me places where spammers and intermediaries have totally taken over search result pages. Don't give people a reason to complain and wonder why Google's main business is rotting.

4. Make Google TV something that we HAVE to own. How? Well, if it let me watch YouTube Live that would be one small start. Make a deal with Netflix and the movie industry to have first-run movies on it, while other devices get only the lame old stuff.

5. Find a reason for Chrome OS to exist or kill it. Of course, after talking to Zoho's CEO about the pre-production Google Chrome Notebook maybe the goal should simply be to ship it.

Don't take on too much at once, the company is working great as it is.

It Turned 10 Wiki WIki

Yesterday on 15th January 2011 Wikipedia the free encylopedia turned 10. And how could we resist from celebrating ( Damn we are geeks). We were present at the wiki celebrations held at Recreation Centre Noida sec- 33. We were expecting a great participation but we were clearly dissapointed. People visiting there just to attend a general quiz (which was at the entry fees of 100). Well we hated the quiz part. No IT Questions until the finals Saved Our Soals and boom no one knew the answer except us. Well after the bad part was over finally the wiki celebrations started.We saw a video starring Jimmy Wales which we have already seen atleast a 100 times. Though the presentation on wikipedia was great and we only enjoyed that part of the celebrations. After the celebrations we had a formal talk with the persons representing wikipedia.

Tiger M@te

Google Bangladesh which was hacked on 8/1/11 around 12:30 p.m. IST. The Googles home page was defaced and a page with the tagline Own3d by Tiger M@te was seen.
This Bangladeshi hacker earlier has also hacked the website of Airtel Bangladesh.
Today when I woke up in the morning to see that was Google able to restore their website back to normal, I was disappointed. Though the defaced landing page was cured and the page seen right now is in the screenshots below. To check out for yourself visit google.com.bd
