Good idea but a little light on content.

@andrewallsop Thought so too, the stories are too shallow and provide little insight into how the startups actually got their early adopters. The references are good though!

@andrewallsop Agreed. The content is super light, and provides little more than a one paragraph summary on the what the companies did. Didn't find it useful at all

Product Hunt

@andrewallsop agree. This article by @theunixbeard goes into a lot more detail on how we started Product Hunt: Product Hunt’s Rise: An Overnight Success 1,834 Days in the Making

@theunixbeard @rrhoover Thanks Ryan, I've not seen this before. There's Growth Hacker's Growth Studies too which are really good - https://growthhackers.com/growth... I've no doubt a book on this subject would be a huge success.

@andrewallsop @andreoidb I think it would be beneficial to include a summary and then links to founders talking about their MVP/acquiring first users themselves (ex. Brian Chesky interviews about AirBnB are on YouTube).

This is amazing. I just shared it with co-working group! It would be nice if it had more content though.

the user behaviors have change a lot and the way FB or Uber acquired first users will not work now. but seems interesting at least to get some insights

Great idea, this first user acquisition is a very important lesson for new entrepreneurs and startups.

Good start, wonderful idea. What would make it GREAT is some real, unique insight or stories about each of these legendary start ups. Hope you will keep working on that. Could be great lessons for all the wannabes!

Wonderful concept, but needs more content on 'actual execution' part. References to some blog on details (like the one Ryan has posted) would help a lot. Thanks.
