“All of life has been utterly, profoundly changed thanks to Facebook’s new features, and nothing will ever be the same, and all I can do is sit here and weep at the beauty and magic that Mark Zuckerberg has brought to this world….”

Good satire for certain, but replace Facebook/Zuckerberg and he could post that blog after after tech company’s major announcement.
