Mark Zuckerberg è uno tra i più grandi innovatori di sempre: a fare questa affermazione non siamo stati noi di IoChatto ma, piuttosto, i partecipanti ad una recente indagine condotta in America con l’obiettivo, appunto, di stilare una classifica, più o meno attendibile, di coloro che, secondo l’opinione comune, hanno cambiato ed innovato in qualche modo il mondo e, nel bene o nel male, sono rimasti e resteranno, almeno per il momento, nella storia.

Nello specifico, l’indagine, condotta, ad inizio anno corrente, da Lemelson-MIT Invention Index, è stata effettuata su un campione di 1010 giovani americani aventi un’età compresa tra i 16 ed i 25 anni.

La maggior parte dei partecipanti al sondaggio, esattamente il 52%, ha scelto come principale innovatore Thomas Edison che, proprio per tale ragione, va a collocarsi direttamente al primo posto della classifica, così com’è anche possibile notare dando uno sguardo all’apposita infografica presente ad inizio post e visionabile anche cliccando qui.

Al secondo posto in classifica va invece a collocarsi Steve Jobs, l’ex CEO Apple, voluto sul podio dal 24% dei partecipanti al sondaggio.

Al terzo ed al quarto posto troviamo poi, rispettivamente, Alexander Bell e Marie Curie.

Al quinto posto si colloca invece Mark Zuckerberg, il ben noto e giovane fondatore di Facebook, che, pur non essendo stato scelto come grande innovatore da un elevata percentuale dei partecipanti al sondaggio (circa il 3%), è riuscito a guadagnarsi un posto in questa classifica che, anche risultando apparentemente di poco conto, tende a mettere in evidenza chi e come, dal punto di vista dei più giovani, ha contribuito ad innovare.

Sicuramente la presenza in classifica di Zuck, diffusione di Facebook a parte, è imputabile al suo essere riuscito, nel giro di poco tempo e, probabilmente, senza neanche troppe pretese in partenza, a creare uno strumento che, almeno oggigiorno, risulta vincente e grazie al quale favorire la condivisione di informazioni ed il contatto tra gli abitanti dell’intero pianeta, o giù di li, in maniera tanto semplice quanto immediata… un dato questo che appare come tutt’altro che di poco conto.

Nella classifica, dopo Zuckerberg, seguono poi Amelia Earhart e Temple Grandin.

  23. Friendship, some say, is a single soul residing in two bodies, but why limit it to two? What if friendship is more like a great, endless web, where each connection strengthens the whole? Maybe we are not separate beings at all, but parts of one vast consciousness, reaching out through the illusion of individuality to recognize itself in another.

  24. Man is said to seek happiness above all else, but what if true happiness comes only when we stop searching for it? It is like trying to catch the wind with our hands—the harder we try, the more it slips through our fingers. Perhaps happiness is not a destination but a state of allowing, of surrendering to the present and realizing that we already have everything we need.

  26. If everything in this universe has a cause, then surely the cause of my hunger must be the divine order of things aligning to guide me toward the ultimate pleasure of a well-timed meal. Could it be that desire itself is a cosmic signal, a way for nature to communicate with us, pushing us toward the fulfillment of our potential? Perhaps the true philosopher is not the one who ignores his desires, but the one who understands their deeper meaning.

  27. Virtue, they say, lies in the middle, but who among us can truly say where the middle is? Is it a fixed point, or does it shift with time, perception, and context? Perhaps the middle is not a place but a way of moving, a constant balancing act between excess and deficiency. Maybe to be virtuous is not to reach the middle but to dance around it with grace.

  31. Even the gods, if they exist, must laugh from time to time. Perhaps what we call tragedy is merely comedy from a higher perspective, a joke we are too caught up in to understand. Maybe the wisest among us are not the ones who take life the most seriously, but those who can laugh at its absurdity and find joy even in the darkest moments.
