Yeah, I think it's time to move on and put this ugliness behind us.
many of their most important things have, of course, come through acquisition
Amazing. I'm a huge Google fan. I think everybody, who has worked at Google, always has a fondness for Google, and their wholeů their values are real. I'm a fan of Larry, I love his making big bets. I think they're gonna continue to take over the world.
It's very inspiring. ... to see that kind of uh... ambition and just 'going for it' in Silicon Valley, is inspiring to me I'd hope they do fantastic.
It's amazing. It's the best car ever made, in my opinion. Not that I've tried all the cars, but if you consider from a practical perspective, something you can drive around town, and it's an amazing experience. And just technologically, a leap beyond everything before. I think it's amazing.
I think that Twitter, for example, uh... has a form of native advertising working very well.
Even going back to that Twitter story, and the really key huge insight we had around 2009, I think, when we... Remember, when we changed the question from, 'What are you doing?' to 'What's happening?' That was after we realize, you know, Twitter isn't about status updates to my friends, it's more about... it's an information network, not a social network. It's also a social network to a degree. And that's where a lot people use it for, but... but what you really want to emphasize was this real-t
It's a new way to tell stories, and it's a perfect complement to Twitter, because it's all about... it allows you to tell a story about what's happening right now in a way, you didn't have before. It expands the palette.
And lots of people still tell us Twitter is hard to use, it's too confusing. And so, the simplicity is sort of uh... a bit of a Red herring, I think, in terms of what made it successful. It could be simpler, but yet, uh... it also needs to get more powerful.
And all that time, Chris Sacca would text me, like, 'This is big.' That became as BIG. It's BIG. And we started to get a sense, that it was big.
it was definitely a tipping point, and it was interesting, because it was the first glimmer of, uh... 'This isn't just a social what-my-friends-are-doing thing, it's a real-time information layer, that added a new aspect to this whole event.'
