不是每一個人都適閤做初創,然而能夠在人群裏找齣那些極少的適閤做企業傢的人的唯一辦法是讓很多人都去嘗試。在美利堅對失敗的寬容,對專業主義的癡迷,對科學和數據的專注,對瘋狂和古怪的包容,對創新精神的尊重,以及各種種種不可思議的元素構成瞭這樣一方神奇的土壤。很開心我來到瞭這裏。我想在這片土地上寫下我的故事。我希望當未來的人們迴看21世紀偉大企業傢的璀璨星河時,我會是其中閃耀的一顆。
評分聽的audible book. 看樣子亞馬遜的評分虛高啊。
評分:無
評分YC一窺
評分其實沒有讀到最後,但也沒必要瞭。作為一個天使級彆的投資人,Graham也沒有很齣眾啊。哦不,我的意思是不是那麼目空一切的齣眾啊。
Randall Stross writes the “Digital Domain” column for The New York Times and is a professor of business at San Jose State University. He is the author of several acclaimed books, including eBoys, Planet Google, and The Wizard of Menlo Park. He has a Ph.D. in history from Stanford University.
Investment firm Y Combinator is the most sought-after home for startups in Silicon Valley. Twice a year, it funds dozens of just-founded startups and provides three months of guidance from Paul Graham, YC’s impresario, and his partners, also entrepreneurs and mostly YC alumni. The list of YC-funded success stories includes Dropbox (now valued at $5 billion) and Airbnb ($1.3 billion).
Receiving an offer from YC creates the opportunity of a lifetime — it’s like American Idol for budding entrepreneurs.
Acclaimed journalist Randall Stross was granted unprecedented access to Y Combinator’s summer 2011 batch of young companies, offering a unique inside tour of the world of software startups. Most of the founders were male programmers in their mid-twenties or younger. Over the course of the summer, they scrambled to heed Graham’s seemingly simple advice: make something people want.
We watch the founders work round-the-clock, developing and retooling products as diverse as a Web site that can teach anyone programming, to a Wikipedia-like site for rap lyrics, to software written by a pair of attorneys who seek to “make attorneys obsolete.”
Founders are guided by Graham’s notoriously direct form of tough-love feedback. “Here, we don’t fire you,” he says. “The market fires you. If you’re sucking, I’m not going to run along behind you, saying, ‘You’re sucking, you’re sucking, c’mon, stop sucking.’” Some teams would even abandon their initial idea midsummer and scramble to begin anew.
The program culminated in “Demo Day,” when founders pitched their startup to several hundred top angel investors and venture capitalists. A lucky few attracted capital that gave their startup a valuation of multiple millions of dollars. Others went back to the drawing board.
This is the definitive story of a seismic shift that’s occurred in the business world, in which coding skill trumps employment experience, pairs of undergraduates confidently take on Goliaths, tiny startups working out of an apartment scale fast, and investors fall in love.

評分http://www.paulgraham.com/startupmistakes.html October 2006 In the Q & A period after a recent talk, someone asked what made startups fail. After standing there gaping for a few seconds I realized this was kind of a trick question. It's equivalent to aski...
