MARK ZUCKERBERG MAY work 24 hours-a-day honing his company’s privacy policies but his own Facebook profile is an open book.

He has about 100 interests listed on his page and he subscribes to a number of people, including writers, musicians and actors.

Some of his interests aren’t all that surprising: Star Wars, Steve Jobs and Enders’ Game. However, others could be described as “shockers”.

The good folk over at Business Insider have trawled through his ‘About’ section to come up with some of the more surprising entries.

  • Long Showers

    We're guessing of the Californian, indoor electric power-shower kind and not the Irish kind. He liked the page, 'I stay longer in the shower because the water is so warm'. (AP Photo/Matt Dunham)

  • Minimalism

  • In-n-Out Burger

    For someone who only ate meat he killed, we're surprised Zuckerberg likes In-N-Out burger. But he's subscribed to it on Facebook. Image: Hans Kundnani via Flickr
