For the first time ever, a top Facebook executive is co-chairing the World Economic Forum Annual Meeting in Davos, Switzerland, further cementing the company’s place as a major player on the international stage.

Chief Operating Officer Sheryl Sandberg will co-chair the forum taking place later this month.

Sandberg, a former economist at the World Bank and veteran of the Clinton administration, was interviewed by the forum’s blog and previewed some of this year’s themes.

She talks about the role social media has played in protests in the Middle East to the way consumers shop, and shares her view that, “the wisdom of friends will replace the wisdom of crowds.”
