Tell me exactly what was unique about the idea of Facebook.

It could be summed up in three words: MySpace for Harvard. That's not an idea, that's an obvious conclusion.

I don't argue that you don't need good ideas. I argue that good ideas are a dime a dozen. I argue that no matter how good an idea is, if you can't execute, it's not going to be worth anything.
