前两天看到一篇文章，说现在是创业最好的时代。作者拿30年前互联网初期对比，那时随便一个商业点子都可以在互联网领域占据机会，如今互联网被慢慢的撑满了，尤其是最近十年的爆发式增长，似乎传统互联网领域的机会越来越显得机会少了。可是这些商业模式在30年前可是无法预料的，30年的发展将一个初生事物变成如今不可或缺的一部分，似乎已经而且将更进一步的渗透在生活的每一部分。可是30年后的互联网形态会是如何呢？互联网会如何的更深的渗透在人/物的信息流之中呢？30年后的时候是不是也有会发现自己错失了当时的好时机呢。

如今Internet Of Things, Big Data， Social Network, 无人驾驶汽车，电动汽车，互联网似乎要将所有东西都互通互联起来，构筑一张遍布世界的物联网。身处LA和最近在硅谷，更是感受到了创业的热潮。身边想创业和有创业想法的人也挺多，也有一些已经纷纷开始试水. 有时候会感觉是不是该是大批量的85左右的创业者开始登上历史的舞台了。虽然已经有部分先知先觉者，或者由于机缘，或者资源，或勇气已经开始出现挺多的成功的80后创业者，尤其是也互联网领域的初创企业。最近几年85左右的创业者应该会有集体登上舞台的可能性，就像曾经的创业者们一样，纷纷是在差不多的时间段显现。

而这一波的创业热潮会是什么呢？此前的Google,Yahoo 搜索引擎，到Facebook，Twitter，LinkedIn社交热潮，以及最近的Airbnb, Uber,Lyft。下一波集体出现的会是怎样的呢？或许是Internet of Things，也有很多在尝试了，但是已何种形态出现呢？

自己偶尔也有些想法，但是都没有认真的去付诸实施。也没有想清楚到底该如何。有时候不得不承认闭门造车是不现实的，必须要走出去，去经历，去感受，去拓宽视野，了解这个社会，了解生活，了解世界，你才会知道机会再哪里？想出一个“不错“的Idea，然后去找合适的市场往往是本末倒置了。就想之前拜访某Alumni是他说的，很多人都是绞尽脑汁想到一个很不错的Idea，然后开始寻找market，和目标用户，但这个过程就挺痛苦。而如果你是努力的发现了一个市场，一个需求，而去根据这样的需求去实现一个想法，这样会顺畅很多。而且他也提到了，如果这个市场机会没有10B的潜力，就不要轻易的去尝试，要尽可能的寻找有大的市场机会的领域，因为那样才足矣撑起一个产业或者一个大型的公司，投资人也会对其前景看好. 按其而言，一个small app有趣但其实未必要值得尝试，因为一个300M的领域和一个10B的商机都需要你倾尽权利的努力去争取做好. 为何不选择一个更大的和更有想象空间的领域呢.

我应该继续多学习，多了解这个世界方才好.

P.S. 以后是不是应该尝试着写一写比较系统的，做过些研究的文章O(∩_∩)O~.

都说破财消灾….自从我买了车后, 破财我是认真的做到了…消灾我却一直没有感觉到啊…

昨天才开心嘚瑟的终于拿到工资了，还晚上屁颠屁颠的上网给自己买了170刀的一把剃须刀作为礼物

今天上班路上就把车头顶上了人家的车屁股…我都不记得咋会发生那一幕…那片刻…貌似灵魂出窍了吧..我们都停着车呢，在高速上, 然后我貌似一松油门，车就上去了…反应过来已经晚了….估计又要折损几百刀了吧？如果太贵就走保险了..虽说有可能会使得保费上涨啊…

最近真是各种走神啊！有些昏沉沉.

Bay Area is a magical place, even I just stay here for three weeks….

During the past three weeks, I already met different types of entrepreneurial, one from CSDN, one from DeepGlint, and one from BitAccess. Pretty lucky to talk each of them, one just a coffee talk,  have a dinner together, and one I even started to work with him for some small things.

All I want is just a close look about the YC startup, and how they grow up to a more successful startup. Everything more than 4000 startup apply the YC program and only maybe 80 will be enrolled in the program through a very competitive process. They will have three months to improve the product and expand the business and then will have chance to pitch their company,facing around 450 VC from all over the world. Maybe the big exposure to all those VCs is the major attractive things for most of them. YC will invest 20,000 for 6% of the shares and another 100,000 for 1 percent of the convertible shares( not sure what’s this or I misunderstood it). So actually 120,000 for 7% of the shares in total.

It’s a good place to stay in touch with the most amazing things happening here.

Sometimes I just wonder when will I start my own journey.

P.S. This Saturday, I went to Big Basin for hiking with a girl from GSB. She started to work on her own project in education area. She was really a brave girl, not only for her courage to work on her project, but for the experience when we hiked.

I made a mistake at Saturday and chose a hiking trail with almost 11 or 12 miles. We started to hike like 3pm….and I still didn’t change my hiking plan. I shouldn’t do this if there is another chance. She was so afraid when she realized that we walked almost 3 hours and in the middle of the forest. And maybe we couldn’t walk out of the forest before sunset. She started to walk so fast, even running later. At the last 2 miles, she started to cry as she used up all her energy and couldn’t walk any more. What’s surprise me most was even under such a situation, she made it and she didn’t fully complain about the whole thing. She just went through what we did good and what we did bad. I felt so regret when I looked at her sleeping in my car, I can feel her tiredness from her face.

Thanks very much for not complaining…..

I think she will be very successful as an entrepreneurial.

The same as last two days, I had a feeling of losing the direction.

Have no passion about what I did now and I just can not calm down and do what I should do.

What happened to me those days? Tired or bored?

Lunched with the technical product marketing directer at a HK restaurant.

Held three meetings with China team after 5:00pm and ended up at almost 7:30 pm.

Maybe all the big company will have the same problems…….and it’s hard to solve it.

I spent most of my time surfing online and reading the tech news.

I messed up this week and tomorrow is the last day of this week and I almost did nothing so far…

Hope I will recover soon.

Again….wasted one day and didn’t do anything…

Met with product marketing director of Tippingpoint and lunched with my mentor.

Still struggle to figure out the project scope and the timeline for that…..

A little lost of the direction after the two weeks talk with different people…

Maybe I could continue to collect more information about the business.

Actually I did nothing today!

Dinner withe the founder of DeepGlint. It is a very cool startup in China, and even Bill Gate visited the company when he traveled to China.

I almost did nothing today, just felt so tired that I even fell asleep in the afternoon in the office.

Drove to visit my friend at Google and happened to meet the founder of CSDN Jiangtao.

Felt a little worried about my summer project and its progress……..

I spent most of my time meeting and talking with different people in the group, and haven’t done too much about China market.

Next week, I will start to conduct the buyer’s interview and get a sense about what they are thinking about enterprise security product.

ESP team held a team building event to welcome the interns, actually just for the product marketing interns. We headed to play Bocce Ball in the morning and enjoyed our lunch there. It was a pretty fun place and it was also my first time to play Bocce Ball! It was also a great place to play with teammate and know more people in the group. I already schedule lunch time with a new guy I met today.

When we backed to office, it was almost 2pm. I even forgot about what I did in the afternoon…I think I just checked some email, sent some email, schedule the time for lunch, and read some customer reference about the product.

Dinner with a friend, who just moved to Bay Area this month after her husband transferred from China to U.S. Actually we haven’t meet for almost  four years since last time we met at Shanghai. It’s cool to re-connect people in a new environment.

Almost two week….maybe need to speed up the project….haven’t done any customer/partner/ interview yet.
