Facebook's Zuckerberg Says It Will Launch 'something awesome' Next Week [reuters.com]

Facebook, the world's biggest social networking website, is set to launch a new feature next week, possibly in the mobile or tablet arena, its CEO said. Chief Executive and founder Mark Zuckerberg told reporters in a visit to Facebook's Seattle office on Wednesday that the company planned to "launch something awesome" next week. He said the project had been developed at the 40-person Seattle office, Facebook's only major engineering center outside of its Palo Alto, California headquarters.

A Facebook spokesman declined to provide further details about Zuckerberg's comments.
