This is the remarkable behind-the-scenes story of the creation and growth of Airbnb, the online lodging platform that has become, in under a decade, the largest provider of accommodations in the world. At first just the wacky idea of cofounders Brian Chesky, Joe Gebbia, and Nathan Blecharczyk, Airbnb has disrupted the $500 billion hotel industry, and its $30 billion valuation is now larger than that of Hilton and close to that of Marriott. Airbnb is beloved by the millions of members in its “host” community and the travelers they shelter every night. And yet, even as the company has blazed such an unexpected path, this is the first book solely dedicated to the phenomenon of Airbnb.
Fortune editor Leigh Gallagher explores the success of Airbnb along with the more controversial side of its story. Regulators want to curb its rapid expansion; hotel industry leaders wrestle with the disruption it has caused them; and residents and customers alike struggle with the unintended consequences of opening up private homes for public consumption. This is also the first in‑depth study of Airbnb's leader, Brian Chesky, the quirky and curious young CEO, as he steers the company into new markets and increasingly uncharted waters.
##一天多翻完了,这本书是airbnb这些年新闻的集合, 也试图探讨了一些深入的问题,比如社会矛盾,和酒店,竞争对手的关系,成功的原因,不少地方有捧白切鸡臭脚(learning machine)的感觉,和我看到的airbnb不太一样
评分##很感动的一种情怀

评分##Airbnb is a company I want to go to, but failed to go to.
评分##书里面的故事和the upstarts有至少八成的重叠,是什么让两个不同的作者在同一年出版的两本书中产生这么多重复?我能想到的唯一合理解释就是这家公司的PR直接把添加了滤镜的公司发展史发给了两个作者,后者再简单修改一下然后出版。没有可信度。不过也能看出作者的水平:这位比写了两本亚马逊传记的那位写的糟糕得多。

评分1. Brian Chesky是厉害啊,可以跟Airbnb一起scale 2. 创业的时候launch三次毫无奇效,牛奶都买不起就着自来水干吃麦片,到Airbnb后来融到了几百亿仍然能不忘初心 3. Airbnb和YC果然是互相成就,现在Paul Graham的创业哲学可以明显看出大量从Airbnb得出的经验,在Black Swan Farming里,PG就说YC投资面对根本矛盾,a) 必须要投有10000倍可能的想法,中等程度的成功对YC毫无意义,YC超过80%的利润来自于对Airbnb和Dropbox的投资 b) 最有10000倍可能的想法一开始看上去通常是坏主意
