Video & Photos: Facebook CEO Mark Zuckerberg Rings In The NASDAQ Bell

Zuckerberg On Screen Ringing The NASDAQ BellFacebook chief executive Mark Zuckerberg didn't travel to New York's Times Square for the company's big day. He did it unconventionally like you'd expect a hacker would. ?He opened the bell remotely from the company's Menlo Park Headquarters after Facebook employees had just finished a long, all-night Hackathon -- their 31st. They played midnight hockey and worked on extra projects, as you can see from photos we re-posted here. Just ahead of the 6:30 PST open, the company's employees got together again in the main headquarters "Hacker Square" in front of a big stage where he rang the bell. Unlike Zynga CEO Mark Pincus in last December's IPO, Zuckerberg didn't give any remarks. He was flanked by chief operating officer Sheryl Sandberg, vice president of product Chris Cox and Elliot Schrage, who is Facebook's vice president of public policy and communications. A Facebook engineer named David Garcia had hacked the NASDAQ button to auto-post the bell opening to Zuckerberg's Timeline (and we have the inside scoop on how he did it!)
