The key point in the article is that he's not so busy that he doesn't use Twitter all the time. I think your point would be more valid if Hurley or Zuckerberg were using another service 10 to 1 over their own.

Respectfully disagree.
Twitter's more akin to Email. Much more of a staple product.
It's like comparing how often Hurley emails/texts with how often he likes things and uploads videos onto YouTube.

I absolutely agree. However, to be honest, I didn't realize it until I read your comment. Maybe it's because I am still working on my morning coffee, but I read the TC post, thought "bummer for Digg", and moved on.
This is what makes a site like HN so great. Crowd-sourcing news analysis provides for such a better experience. I'm still working on my coffee, but I think HN is pointing towards the future of news.

Agreed but companies should always try and use their own products. If you manage Mercedes, it is eensible not to drive a BMW.
Article is theater though.

> How often do you think Zuck is on Facebook?
Honestly? I get the impression he at least looks at it (is that enough to be "on" it?) daily.
When was the last time Chad Hurley used his YouTube account to do something? How often do you think Zuck is on Facebook?
This is truly absurd. I don't often try to rain down insults at TechCrunch, but this is over the edge.
Everything from the SEO-ified headline, to the factually incorrect content, to the intellectually insulting bar graph, to finally the fact that there really isn't even a story here even if the claims might be true...is just annoying. This is over the edge.
