KK: It is the best time to start a business in history

Can you imagine how great the entrepreneurial environment was in 1985 years? At that time, all the words, short, cool, almost anything you want. com domain names can be obtained. All you have to do is ask. Even the domain name declaration does not need to spend money. This opportunity has been going on for years. In 1994, an author of Wired noted that mcdonalds.com had not been used, and encouraged him to register the domain name and try to sell it to McDonald's, but the other person's ignorance of the internet was so hilarious that it later became a story on Wired. Soon I found out that abc.com was not registered, so I explained the digital future to the senior ABC, telling them that they should send their smartest geeks to the basement to register their domain, but they ignored it.

The internet was still a completely open uncharted territory. It's a breeze to be a pioneer in x field. Consumers have little expectation, and the threshold is very low. Be a search engine! Open a shop! Launch amateur video! Of course, it's all about that year. Now looking back, it seems that since then waves's pioneers have developed all the possible frontiers, leaving today's new entrants as if they were left with rugged dots. 30 years later, the feeling of the internet has been filled with apps, platforms, devices, and more than the next millions of years of attention, becoming bloated and overcrowded. If you racked your brains to think of another micro-innovation, who would notice?

But if we think about what we've accomplished in the last 30 years online, this abundance is still incredible. We have: contact with family and friends anytime and anywhere, on demand, customizable news streams, scalable 3D maps covering most of the world's cities, an encyclopedia of voice queries, a movie on a tablet that can be loaded into a pocket, a store that sells almost everything, and things can be delivered the next day- This is just 6 of thousands of accomplishments.

But, but ... There's a problem. On the internet, nothing has happened. The internet is still the first Internet. If we could go into the time machine and look back 30 years from now, we would realize that most of the greatest products used by people in the 2044 were not invented until 2014. The people at that time looked at the holographic deck (holodeck), wearing virtual reality contact lenses, downloadable avatar (avatar), and artificial intelligence interfaces, and said, oh, you didn't have "Internet" (or other definitions) ...

That is true. Because from our point of view, the greatest online thing in the century is right in front of us. All these incredible inventions--the same kind of fruit that grew in the lower reaches of the 1984 domain name--were waiting for the crazy Dreamer who said, "Nobody told me it was impossible."

Because 2044 years old man has one more thing to tell you: can you imagine how great it was to be an entrepreneur in the 2014? It's a completely open uncharted territory! You can almost arbitrarily choose a field, add a little AI to it, and then put it in the cloud. At that time (2014) Not a few devices have more than 1, 2 sensors, unlike the current hundreds of (2044). Expectations and thresholds are low. It's easy to be first. Then they will sigh with regret, "Oh, if only then we can realize that everything is possible!"

So the truth is: Now, 2014 is the best time to do something on the Internet. In the history of the world, there is no time for invention to be better than the present. Like today, there are more opportunities, more openness, lower thresholds, higher risk of return, better returns, and greater positive moments than ever before. Now, this is the moment. Now it's the future of those guys looking back on the past sigh of regret, "If you can go back to that time!" "That moment.

The past 30 years have created an incredible starting point and a solid platform to develop truly great things. Yet the coolest thing has yet to be invented. It is not just "better", it will be different, beyond the present.

You may not realize that what we are facing today is a new field that is truly and completely open. This is the best time that human beings will ever open.

It's not too late to start a business.
