Birth of a Startup (or Eight)

A session at Web 2.0 Expo 2011 SF

In March 2006, a small podcasting startup called Odeo launched a side project. You now know that side project as Twitter. Interestingly, Twitter is just one of the companies that came out of Odeo; seven employees-- or more than half the of the company-- went on directly to found other ventures, including Instagr.am, Square, Trazzler and CrowdVine.
