I'm sure Mark didn't setout to do this but that's what's happened. What's more powerful than the influencing of ideas?

You can share a political opinion and people around the world can be reading that comment as soon as it's posted.

Ideas change the world!

Brunel gets a mention because of his body or work, early innovation and problem solving.
Yeah, Zuckerberg did something that made a big change- or took advantage of a big change that was going on - ... but the 2nd pic I posted was of Tim Berners-Lee. We literally wouldn't be doing this, and Zuckerberg couldn't have done his thing if it weren't for him....
