And then I had a long period of failure.

The whole...

2001, all the way, I mean, through tribe.net, all the way.

And I still managed to fail.

And that's when I remind people there were a lot of social networks that succeeded, but

We just don't know them because they didn't win ultimately.

But tagged, Bebo, you know, there was a whole bunch.

There was like seven or eight.

So lots of social networks worked.

You know, people were into it.

I was one of the only ones to fail.

So this wasn't like there was one that made out of 100.

You know, there might have been like...

seven or eight that made it out of, I don't know, 12 or 10.

So I was in the minority.

It was like an act of will to do it in a feeling way.

And it was so humbling.

That I think it prepared me well for Zynga and being ready to do something, start with something very small and really get to product market fit first and then ambition after.

Yeah.
