Facebook CEO Mark Zuckerberg recently sat down for an interview with The New York Times and touched on a number of topics, parts of the areas touched includes: the company's perceived lack of innovation to his thoughts on new apps like Secret.also,  When questioned on some of Facebook's "failures" in recent years, Zuckerberg admitted some of the company's ideas — Facebook Home chief among them — have failed to pick up any real momentum, but he said there are valid reasons for that. according to him, "The reception was much slower than we expected," he said of Home, the company's Android lockscreen replacement. "When you install it, it’s really active, and if it does anything that you don’t like, then you’ll uninstall it." Essentially,Facebook owner believes that Home's ambitious nature has limited its potential success its just that he's not convinced.
included in the chat was  Facebook's other initiatives like Graph Search of which Mark revealed that  can be considered flops just yet in his word,he 'We have to think about it over a longer period of time," he said of refining search. Facebook's next big push to improve Graph Search will let users search through post content (i.e. status updates) on the site, but Zuckerberg didn't specify when that feature will be added.
The subject of virtual reality wasn't raised during the interview, but Zuckerberg did note that his company isn't obsessed with putting its name on everything — perhaps to quell fears that the Oculus Rift will eventually carry Facebook branding. "There are some sets of experiences that are just better with other identities," he said. "I think you should expect to see more of that."
