Create Something That Americans Want to Copy

Guy Kawasaki (a favourite author of mine) said this in reply to a question from an Indian interviewing him on TV in India recently. He also said the following-

On Fake news- It is whatever news you disagree with-only sometime later do you really know if its fake.

On the origin of Facebook- Facebook started because Mark wanted a date, and not because he thought the world needed a new method of communication.

On Entrepreneurs Selling Out- They want to make money, and improvement to people's lives is a by-product.

On Big Data- Big data does not have all the answers-it can also be all lies.

Successful Investing- Most investors don't know which idea will succeed. In retrospect, they claim that this idea was backed by a good team, blah, blah, blah.. For one (investment in) Google that succeeded, many failed.
