A Facebook Deepthroat? The Facebook Interview you probably shouldn’t read……
here are the highlights (full article here):
- -There is/was a master password that anyone at Facebook HQ could log in as any user, used. It was symbols & upper/lowercase letters that spelled out Chuck Norris. NOW they just have a little button to click if they want to get into your account.
- People have been fired for abusing this.
- -Facebook knows and tracks who your best friends are calculated by interactions
- Facebook Tracks EVERYTHING. Profiles you view, photos you look at, photos your in, et cetera.
- Facebook uses eye tracking
- Facebook never deletes anything- Photos, Posts, Updates, Messages, Videos.
- Facebook found that changing where the next button on photo galleries increased page views by 77%, reduced their bandwith, generated more money making clicks per minute.
- In a couple of months the site will load in 1/5th the time it does now due to a complete code re-write.
- ~70% of the engineers come from Stanford and Harvard
