Today at Y Combinator's Startup School, Facebook CEO Mark Zuckerberg sat down for a lengthy interview with Jessica Livingston. The topics discussed ranged from Facebook's beginnings (including a brief discussion of The Social Network) to the social network's strategy in China, which has proved to be problematic for other Western tech companies like Google.
Zuckerberg says that for years Facebook didn't have a strategic plan for international growth ?�each month, the site would take off in a seemingly random country with no apparent pattern (obviously this approach paid off). But there are still a handful of countries that Facebook isn't winning in, or isn't on a path to win: China, Japan, South Korea, and Russia.
