Berkeley, California - Facebook and Twitter stars shares to the existing instruction with young entrepreneurs seeking the next hot technology companies. Facebook's Mark Zuckerberg and Twitter founder Evan Williams and Biz Stone are among the speakers on Saturday the whole day in a startup school under the direction of Y Combinator.
"It's really unbelievable to be here," said Zuckerberg, when he stepped Combinator's Jessica Livingston on stage in a packed auditorium at the University of California, Berkeley.
"This is how my people. One of the great things about the Y Combinator program that you have this shirt that says, build something that people want." I think your right. "
Y Combinator in Silicon Valley city of Mountain View, founded in 2005, an inventory of small start-ups in exchange for their care and bring them to investors.
"We had to draw a lot of groups with the technical depth," says Y Combinator on its website.
"We are more concerned about how smart you are than how old you are and more about the quality of your ideas if you have a formal business plan to have."
More than 1,600 aspiring entrepreneurs that are applied in the start Saturday classes in the school, once in place.
A nearly 800-auditorium was packed all day.
Twitter jumped from a "hack weeks and two days" on Odeo, a podcasting company, took the Williams to the starting line after leaving his job at Google in 2004, said the founder in a chat on stage with Livingston.
"I remember someone said earlier on Twitter is fun, but is useful and Ev said:" So what? So, ice cream, "said Stone as a warning to be wary of skeptics." We like it. So, we continue to work on it. "
Since entering new territory with Twitter Microblogging Services, Stone, and Williams has faith in the idea, but the lack of market data.
"One thing I admire about Google is always that it is at these words very large, are good and we'll take ass and make it better than anyone else, they do it with search and advertising," Williams said.
"With Twitter, there is no market, there is no way to justify the investment, but it makes us laugh and it was really cool."
Twitter could incubate Odeo, and saves the creators of the pitching, which sounded "like a stupid idea" for investors, according to the founders.
Among the questions that follow Twitter today, as the San Francisco company is in the global popularity of cash.
"We have never doubted that if you make something popular, you can make money," Williams said.
Twitter, the biggest challenge is to the advantage of his position before a company tries to competing technologies that use the market to Microblogging "is perceived as Williams.
"Everything went well and the stakes are very high," Williams said. "We will resist serious competition."
Another challenge faced by nerves, is the corporate culture of conservation to grow the established social and environmental as well as a small company, according to Stein.
"Twitter two years and stands in the global spotlight," said Stone.
"We do not like as a child actor who found fame early, and brought all the funky and frightening. Some of the work on Twitter returns to the world."
Stone says Twitter could be in a position to go public with stock issues, but that he hoped the company would find more creative ways to fund its growth.
"It sounds silly, with no income to talk about going public, but I will not say that hilarious more," said Stone.
"Our goal is to change the world. The necessity of the platform is bigger. At one point, the IPO can make the most sense."
Facebook said Zuckerberg, that leads to the creation of students of Harvard University with a tendency hackers start a company with smart friends.
"At the time I have to build to Facebook, I did in two weeks," said Zuckerberg.
"Start early and pass on, Facebook is the story really well."
Evolution of Facebook is what the members of online social networking community on the web site and their feedback is not driven by Zuckerberg.
"We are proud to build things quickly," said Zuckerberg. "We have the technology companies that are truly like a hacker company. My friends, the people who like to build really cool things."
Zuckerberg said the majority of the young audience, as he has just 19 years old when he left Harvard in 2004 and went to Silicon Valley to build the Facebook into a major technology companies.
"The biggest risk you can take a risk," said Zuckerberg. "In the Third World, if you do not change, you lose."
