Rejection to $19 BILLION!
Four years ago, Brian Acton was looking for a job.
His job at Yahoo, where he’d filled many engineering roles over 11 years, had come to an end.
He was networking with recruiters:
He met with Twitter. Twitter said no. He met with Facebook. Facebook said no.
So he and Jan Koum, a colleague from Yahoo, set out to do their own thing.
Today, they sold that thing to Facebook for 19 billion dollars.
Life is crazy.

I can't keep up with all of these apps and social medias. I can't figure out what half of this shit is for. I just got on Twitter last week and spent 2 hours reading 3 years' worth of GS elevator gossip. I am content.
That's it. I'm quitting banking. Time to learn app development. Flappy bird here I come
All these apps are crapshoots. Maybe I should get in there too for the thrill.
