Hmm, a guy gets lucky and sells a really simple website and is now an entrepreneur/hacker genius? It's stuff like this that makes me wanna read HN less.

- bourbaki 16y agoFirst of all, forgive me for my english. I'm studying a lot for improve it. I don't know Mark Bao personally, I live in Europe, but I really know a lot about he. He is not Lucky. He is so young, and have already created a some tech-company. 3words.me is only one of those, and was selled in few months. And nobody cares about how simple is an idea. The idea are worthless, the execution and the sociological effect are all, in a simple idea like this. Perfect execution, incredible effect on a lot of people. So, he is a good entrepreneur, and he will improve day by day.
- eswat 16y agoYou’ve explained what I was going to say clearly. Mark has worked on more than just threewords.me for the past couple of years. He’s not some guy that just got lucky with a simple idea and cashed in.
- JoshSherrill 16y agoYou didn't read the article did you? It mentions several other projects he worked on prior to threewords.me.
