Mark Zuckerberg, CEO of Facebook, commented on the iPhone during an interview with TODAY's Matt Lauer.

"It's a wonderful device," the CEO said, after admitting that Cook sent him the new iPhone model, gratis. Facebook's mobile strategy has been a significant concern of users and investors alike, and Zuckerberg clearly spends a lot of time thinking about what people are doing with their smartphones.

"iPhone is a great platform. There are more people who use Facebook on Android -- because Android is just -- more people use it, at this point. And the thing that I think a lot of people don't think about is that there are actually more people in the world using Facebook on mobile Web, right, so not using the apps on iOS or Android, but actually just going to a browser on a phone. There are more people doing that than the iPhone and all of Android phones combined, right? So it's actually a pretty diverse ecosystem."

Lauer's full interview with Mark Zuckerberg airs October 4th on TODAY and on Rock Center with Brian Williams.

The world is pretty fucked up. Cook gives a free iPhone to a person that has more money than the average GNP of a small nation. I'm fucking broke and I don't have money, and he doesn't give me a free phone.

Get a job or go ask Obama to give you one. It is a business practice. Facebook and twitter have kept people looking at their phones and computers nonstop which has helped mold the way to what we have today.

No Tom is right...the world is pretty fucked up and you polemic about Obama is probably the way you think. By the way: Obama care is not socialism you prick!

Never said the world was not fucked up. It is a precursor to socialism just one step closer to over regulation. People expect free stuff from Obama, just "asks" this lovely young lady: http://youtu.be/tpAOwJvTOio If you want something work for it. Don't cry when you don't have it. Just work harder to get it.

Then you are misinfored about this country. If you think we are heading there, then what do you call Massachusetts Romney Care? I guess we are already there? Having to be againts paying for insurance that you are aware of is not the worst thing to not knowing who you just paid for because they are not covered (in our current state). Trust me on this (I work for the Health Insurance company). Having to close your hospitals and Emergency departments due to many non-insured members is the probably something you have never experience from a health care aspect?

I don't understand. I don't think that is totally accurate. When I post to Facebook from within the app. If I go onto the website or see a friends' Facebook. It shows the I updated via mobile web. When I used the app. Do however they record that is flawed.
