“In 2005, Mr. Choe was invited to paint murals on the walls of Facebook’s first offices in Palo Alto, Calif., by Sean Parker, then Facebook’s president. As pay, Mr. Parker offered Mr. Choe a choice between cash in the “thousands of dollars,” according to several people who know Mr. Choe, or stock then worth about the same. Mr. Choe, who has said that at the time that he thought the idea of Facebook was “ridiculous and pointless,” nevertheless chose the stock.”
Probably worth a couple of hundred million dollars now!

![Hand-made wooden iPad stands.
Funny thing is, after watching the video (click through to see) and seeing all the labour and care that was put into the product, I was more inclined to value the product more than $30. Initially, it’s easy to say, “30 dollars just for a piece of wood!” until you see the craft.
Perhaps it’s time for software developers and designers to be more transparent with their craft? Perhaps they’d be valued more?

How many is a lot of users?
It seems that Facebook was hovering around 800 million users for a year now. I was starting to get the feeling they had maxed out. Now news just in is they may be topping 1 billion users soon. (That’s 1 out 7 people globally!)
And this news on the same day as Twitter, who was hovering around a few hundred million users, is set to reach 500 million in February. Half a billion. That’s a big number.
