Awesm developer Jeremiah Cohick posted the following Facebook status earlier today, postulating that Facebook CEO Mark Zuckerberg is too busy wheeling and dealing to actually use Facebook, “In the same way drug dealers don’t use the product they sell, I doubt Zuckerberg is on Facebook all day. Visionaries don’t idle online.”

Well, the proof is in the pudding as they say; From what it looks like, Zuckerberg immediately replied to Cohick’s status update, “No, I really do use Facebook all day long.”

Perfect.

Thus far 1,732 people have liked Zuckerberg’s response, 243 have liked Cohick’s original comment and 32 people have shared the exchange mostly because it humanizes Zuck, bringing him down to our level. I mean, if he was trolling Facebook enough to see that random person’s comment in the first place then he probably does spend a lot of time on the service.

In my humble experience, Internet visionaries do spend massive amounts of time online, because having a deep and continually updating understanding of how people communicate and interact here sparks the visionary process. Besides, that drug dealer thing is mostly an urban myth anyways.
