The boy wonder of social networks, Mark Zuckerberg was at the Web 2.0 summit last week in San Fancisco (1st largest ICT cluster in North America, Toronto is 3rd) shared with moderator John Battelle that the company has some plans for growing Internationally. I’m not sure if Canada would be considered International or not in their eyes, but the question that pops into my mind is “Who could run Facebook Canada?”

Wendy Muller (she retired from the post at Google Canada), Dave Stevens (his hands are full running MySpace Canada), Patrick Lauzon (he’s recently taken a bigger role at Sun Media), Graham Mosely (he’s doing this thing over at CanWest). There was some chatter a few months ago about an ex-agency head that was supposed to take on a potential role, but he’s since moved on to other opportunities. So maybe 2009 will be a the next generation of media heads…

All I know is that $15 billion evaluation, some Canuck needs to get PAID!

The fight to be the number one social networking site has a new chapter here in Canada as MySpace Canada announced the appointment of Dave Stevens as General Manager where he’ll be responsible for overseeing Dave Stevensstrategy and operations for the MySpace Canada community. Prior to MySpace, Dave was Vice President of Product Management and Strategy at CanWest Digital Media. There he was responsible for strategy and operations for canada.com and CanWest’s youth brand, dose.ca. He also led business development for emerging media platforms including mobile, IPTV and digital outdoor display and worked with the marketing, AOL Canada as a Seniro Manager of Content and Sales Strategy before joining CanWest.

There have been many rumours over the last few months that Facebook was going to launch a Canadian division and I have even heard the names of specific industry veterans who might take the helm, so looks like the battle shall continue for another day<br>
