2 preamble issues having read the comments on TC today: 1: I know that the prices of startup companies is much great in Silicon Valley than in smaller towns / less tech focused areas in the US and the US prices higher than many foreign markets.

I came to Silicon Valley when I was 25, turning 26. And I think one of the things that we’ve learned is, when I came to Silicon Valley in 2007, we were starting Airbnb in 2008, it was a marketplace. Airbnb got scrutiny before we were big, because Airbnb meant the internet moving into your neighborhood.

So it would seem like they are an antidote to, or at least less offensive than, social/consumer Internet companies are to the public markets.
