Props to Justin. This guy carries himself like a true startup veteran despite being only 28 years old. He has a level of tenacity that will make him succeed 9/10 times regardless of the idea, that's what differentiates Justin from rest of the wantrapreneurs.
- ryanb 14y agoStartup stories where things don't go as planned but the founders find a way to persevere anyway (like Justin.TV) are way more inspiring to me as an entrepreneur than the overnight successes of companies like Instagram, etc.
- Domenic_S 14y agoMeh, I don't know that I'd call Instagram an overnight success. It was Burbn pre-pivot. A lot of people think Pinterest was an overnight success, too. Know how long they've been around? Edit: That comment sounded snarkier than I meant it to. I guess in relative terms, Instagram is an overnight success when compared to Justin.tv.
- fufulabs 14y agoKevin Systrom interned at a couple of high profile startup pre-Burbn too. Pinterest had a product called Tote before Pinterest so theres a not insignificant time of preconditioning there too.
