Always wondered whether Mark Zuckerberg prefers briefs or boxers? Been pining to ask the Facebook CEO what his five desert island movies are? Tune in to the social network on Nov. 6, at 2 p.m. PT (5 p.m. ET) to ask.
The tech mogul will host his first online Q&A session on Thursday; inquiring minds can watch the livestream on Facebook, or check out the video afterwards.
"Ask me a question below in the comments, or vote on a question you want me to answer by liking it," Zuckerberg explained in a post on the official Q&A with Mark event page. "I'll be answering questions for about an hour, and will try to get through as many as I can."
The message, published Thursday afternoon, has already received more than 4,000 comments, including queries like "Why did you force us to download Facebook Messenger?," "How 'private' is my FB page, really?," "Is there any way to stop Candy Crush game requests?," and "How much do you sleep?"
Zuckerberg already holds a private, in-house Q&A session every Friday, when employees can ask him about anything.
"It's an important part of Facebook's culture," he wrote in a personal post. "People ask thoughtful questions about why our company is going in certain directions, what I think about things happening in the world, and how we can continue improving our services for everyone. I learn a lot from these Q&As, and the questions people ask help us build better services."
Facebook's chief isn't the first tech heavyweight to host his own interrogation: A number of famous faces have joined Reddit's Ask Me Anything (AMA) sessions, including Microsoft founder Bill Gates. The philanthropist completed his second AMA in February, answering questions about cryogenics, condoms, his role in Redmond, and casting Samuel L. Jackson in a movie about his life.
Two years ago, meanwhile, President Barack Obama basically broke Reddit during a surprise Q&A session on the social news site. Online for about 40 minutes—and driving such heavy traffic to the page that Reddit crashed more than a few times—Obama answered only 10 questions, including those about Internet freedom and "intergalactic travel."
