看了几篇
1.PayPal 最初做安全产品，Palm上的支付工具
Livingston: What advice would you give to a young programmer who’s thinking
of starting a startup?
Levchin:Try to have a good cofounder.
Even more importantly, perhaps, you have to have a really strong
cofounder.
2.Hotmail 创始人原来是做硬件设计的。他们原来想做个在线个数据库的。后来发现公司把他们联系用的pop/smtp之类的封了，想到做web mail
Livingston: Had you quit your jobs?
Bhatia: No, we were actually both working, so we decided to spend all of the
time on the weekends and evenings building this product. Then it came to a
point that one of us had to quit our job to focus full-time on it, so I told Jack,
“I’m single and don’t have a family. Why don’t you quit and start working on this
and I’ll give you half of my salary?” So at least he could support his family. I didn’t
need that much money.
“How are you going to make money if you are going to give it
away for free? What’s the revenue mechanism?” We said we would capture
detailed demographic information about people and that detailed quality of
information on individuals would help us advertise to them. But of course
advertising was not a proven revenue model at that time.
Essentially it’s a plan that says what the company is going to do,
what problem it is going to solve, how big the market is, what the sources of revenue
for the company are, what your exit strategy is for your investors, what
amount of money is required, how you are going to market it, what kind of people
you need, what the technology risks are, marketing risks, execution risks.
Those are the fundamentals of what goes into a business plan, and many people
have it in their heads but don’t write it down.
Livingston: What important lessons did you learn at Excite that you are carrying
over to JotSpot?
Kraus: One is hiring slowly and more carefully. Another is be cheap, cheap,
cheap.
3.blogger.com

excite.com 是几个人在那折腾，找VC，VC问能挣钱不？
不能
后来，有个VC问，这个东东，搜索的范围能大些吗？
excite回答说：不知道，我们没有硬盘空间了。
VC 回头给助理打了个电话，立刻送了硬盘过来。9000美圆一个。

good book.
为啥他不回答“能赚钱，能赚大钱”？？？为啥连硬盘没空间都说出来呢，这不是暗示网站快撑不下去了，要game over了。

开始他们只是做类似现在的google桌面搜索之类的产品，最多也只是给一个出版社做过文章的搜索。不是互联网的搜索。
当时，他们还是学生或者，所以9000元的硬盘对他们来说贵了点。那里估计他们还没有网站。
这些成为 big bang 的家伙，很多时候差点就game over了。似乎没有一帆风顺的。
