I don't think you can necessarily say Yahoo is a bad company just because you had a bad experience with one of the customer service representatives.


Awesome thanks!


Just watched this video, very inspiring indeed.


Thanks for the suggestions. I'm looking forward to watching all of them, especially the Lean Startup Conference talk.


I've already seen a couple of these but I'll be sure to watch the ones I haven't. Thanks


The title alone was enough to get me to add it to my playlist.


These videos look great. Bookmarked.


This looks awesome. Added to my plan to watch list! Keeping a playlist going for all these videos.


Great reply! Being a developer, I completely understand.

"I may well have faced 40 or 50 or even 100 rejections before the big break. While in the middle of a string of rejections, it feels more like "foolishness" than "productivity."

I think to an extent, most entrepreneurs have to go through this. Don't get discouraged and keep at it :)


Thanks for the encouragement. Yes, I read once that Ross Perot went through about 70 rejections when first starting EDS. But prior to that he had been one of the top salespeople at IBM. What if he had given up after 69 rejections and gone back to being an employee? Missed out on a billion or two.


I've actually read that one. Very interesting book!
