According to employee Andrew Bosworth's blog, the FB CEO has "A touch of Asperger's."

Any thoughts?

My take, if he is using the "tough but fair" management style, more power to him, it seems to be effective.

That's a little where it becomes a prestige term, and that may actually be a good thing, at least some of the time.

Now, unless the person themselves have said they're on the spectrum, I am more comfortable saying: A creative person who marches to his own drummer. He may be on the spectrum and he may not, and either way is perfectly okay.

It kind of goes without saying that he might be aspergian...You kind of have to be idiosyncratic with poor social skills to work a thing like facebook!
