The success of the Link Ivan was not easy. Has gone through in his life paths and the failure time and again before they rise again and build it again.Ivan was born in the state of Nbraxa America on March 31, 1972. After high school, entered the local university in the state, but it did not last only a year and a half and left after the university discovered that just a waste of time.
Moved to Florida where he is free text editor, then moved to Texas before returning to Nraxa in 1994 to establish his first company of his father.Esicvan were then growing importance of the Internet, Vossa company to produce educational programs on the use of the Internet. Later accompanied by his friends, Ivan began to expand the company's activities by adding design services and web hosting. But poor management and lack of knowledge of how to manage the business and communicate with customers led the company to loss and the accumulation of taxes which were not performed in time.
Year 1997 will move to California to work at O'Reilly Media. There and during the following year will gain technical expertise allow it to operate independent Web developer. The experience will culminate in 1999 founded the company Pyra Labs company of his friend Meg Hourihan to develop a program to manage projects.Sabdouan then later to work on side project to launch an electronic platform for the deployment of blogs. Of course, were not the only platform Blogger, which Google acquired in 2003 (the transaction value is undisclosed) and thus moved Ivan to work at Google.
After a year and a half Ivan will leave Google in October 2004 to establish a company of friends, other service Odeo. But the luck with the blogger Ivan was not repeated with the new product which has suffered a lot of difficulties and errors strategy, especially with the emergence of competitors caliber serve Apple iTunes.
Ivan forced the company to recover from the financiers created the company Obvious Corp, which bought its name All about Odeo. Value of the deal remained confidential, but given that the company may have received funding before its launch amount reached $ 5 million can be expected the size of the amount that Ivan was forced to pay to satisfy shareholders and financiers of the internal team.
In the same period Obvious team began working on Twitter, which launched officially in July 2006. Then months later was transferred to twitter an independent company of the same name and sell to a company Odeo SonicMountain amount of not more than one million dollars. This means that Ivan has at least four million dollars due to the failure of Odeo.
But those days are gone sad, Ivan and now live happy days thanks to the continuing success of Twitter. But in my opinion, if Sikhti did not reach a reasonable agreement with Google to sell Twitter. Because if more than greed, you may lose everything.And the current time is the best time to sell Twitter.
