Mark Zuckerberg announces organ donation feature for Facebook, inspired by Steve Jobs
According to Zuckerberg, both his relationship with his girlfriend (who’s in medical school) and with Steve Jobs (a “friend” who survived a few more years because of a liver transplant) inspired the feature. He also cited tornado and tsunami recovery efforts on Facebook as a factor, mentioning that the tech behind the feature is a “pretty simple thing,” but connecting people in order to save lives is “amazing.”
