That's a charismatic performance. It's an important choice of words how he says "we in silicon valley"... it really gets the audience on side. But I think he's disingenuous, and I think he's been coached. The way he pitches this; it's as if, when he was building facebook, he was like a hobby botanist marvelling at a new flower he'd discovered in his favourite meadow. That the entire exercise was just about the thrill of creation and discovery. You only have to watch the "new" section of HN for a day to see that most hackers are acutely aware of the monetary potential of their creations, and in some cases far more interested in the glamour of being an entrepreneur than the thrill and art of creating software. I'm not saying that the two are mutually exclusive - I certainly work very passionately on things I believe in and aspire to make millions of dollars as a result, but I think in this video clip Zuck is doing a little Hollywood framing of his own.
