Sometimes I think, damn why did I NOT come with this idea

But because I'm thinking that, I'm probably not creating such ideas

thing is, just like myspace it wasn't really an original idea that no one else has tried. its just the one that was embraced and took off.

most of the people who get rich these days aren't re-inventing the wheel, they're putting it on a flashy new rim.

A video web site isn't anything new, but the way they went about doing it was fresh. I wish i'd thought of it.

**reynold** · 10-10-2006, 04:54 PM

Sounds good. Good luck on that promising idea.

**Sly** · 10-10-2006, 04:56 PM

Anyone know who bankrolled the project when they first started?

Yeah that's kind of true.

Sequoia Capital backed them up by the way.

Link

YouTube was hatched by Chad Hurley, Steven Chen and Jawed Karim, all PayPal alumni, early last year. At a backyard barbecue last summer, Mr. Karim showed the site to a friend, Keith Rabois, a former PayPal executive who now works at LinkedIn. Mr. Rabois later told PayPal?s former chief financial officer, Roelof Botha, who is a partner at Sequoia Capital, the venture firm that has backed Apple, Google and Yahoo, among other big names. After meeting with YouTube?s founders, Mr. Botha got Sequoia to invest in it.

I'm sure having PayPal as a stepping stone helps ;)

**Ace_luffy** · 10-18-2006, 11:42 AM

that's totally a destiny...
